Re: Simple Birthday Probability Question
I am trying to relearn/reunderstand probabilities and I know the easiest way to do it is as slickpoppa did, subtrace the probability none share the same birthday from 1.
Just out of curiousity, and I don't need you all to spend any time actually doing it, would I be correct to assume it would be very hard to do it the long way by pen and paper?
How would you do it, compute the chance of exactly two having the same birthday, then exactly three etc?
Probably a basic question but it is what it is.
