Write down $1, 2, 3, ... , 2015$ in a row on a whiteboard. Every minute, select a pair of adjacent numbers at random, erase them, and insert their sum where you selected the numbers. (For instance, selecting $3$ and $4$ from $1, 2, 3, 4, 5$ would result in $1, 2, 7, 5$.) Repeat this process until you have two numbers remaining. What is the probability that the smaller number is less than or equal to $2015$?
