question on the best way to create a percentage chance something happens

Getting Started

I am trying to work out how to make a button that is clicked on have a certain percentage chance to fail rather then just succeed on every click. what do you guys think the best way to put that into a C# script would be?

any ideas or tips/suggestions would be great, i am currently browsing some documentation now trying to work out a way to do it myself.

thanks!

Try this out.

float percentChance = 0.1f;
if (Random.value <= percentChance){
    Debug.Log("Success");
} else {
    Debug.Log("Fail");
}
