Three source-shot totals show that channel fractions scale exact count ledgers. Exact arithmetic here means exact results for the stated model inputs; measured inputs still carry uncertainty and significant-figure limits.

Fifty source shots make forty zero and ten flipped one

With flip fraction 1/5, a source ledger of 50 zero shots maps to 40 zero and 10 one shots.

5015=1050\cdot\frac{1}{5}=10
Fifty-shot source rowThe bit-flip output counts scale from the source total.1zero0one4/5zero1/5onechannel map

One hundred source shots make the original audit row

The same channel maps 100 source shots to 80 zero and 20 one shots.

One hundred fifty source shots keep the same fraction

Raising only the source count to 150 gives 120 zero and 30 one output shots.
