CAN SOMEONE PLZ HELP!!
The probability of at least 2 people in a group of n people sharing a common birthday can be expressed more easily (mathematically) as 1 minus the probability that nobody in the group shares a birthday. Consider two people. The probability that they don't have a common birthday is 365/365 x 364/365. So the probability that they do share a birthday is 1-(365/365 x 364/365) = 1-365x364/365^2
Now consider 3 people. The probability that at least 2 share a common birthday is 1-365x364x363/365^3 And so on so that the probability that at least 2 people in a group of n people having the same birthday = 1-(365x363x363x...x365-n+1)/365^n = 1-365!/[ (365-n)! x 365^n ]
ok 1 step at a time. What do i do to solve a)?
I Have Given You A Basic Formula now jus put Values
Jus Replace n From 13
1-365!/[ (365-n)! x 365^n ]
i'm trying that but it's not coming out right.
