if there are 57 ppl, wuts the chance 2 ppl have the same birthday
    #7785932 - 12/21/07 03:10 PM (16 years, 1 month ago)

so if ur in a classroom with 57 ppl
wut is the probability that at least 2 ppl have the same birthday

99%
isnt that nuts

and if theres 23 ppl there is a 50% probability
math is so trippy
when i was frying at a rave i saw this chick from middle school there
there was 30,000 ppl at that rave
and i saw this chick twice! in 1 nite
man i started 2 think about probability while frying
and it made me realize the world is a really small place
aahahhaahhaahh life is so interesting

Yeaa, we had to do the "birthday problem" in stats over last semester. Our teacher gave us the opportunity to try and figure it out beforehand, and everyone was very wrong. Very interesting.

in school i found so many people had the same birthdays in april and february but only one other person in my school of 600 had there bday on xmas as mine.
so imo it all depends on what time of the year u were born. I'd like to see more on that research. interesting definetly :smile:
