P( 2 equal birthday in group of 15 ) ≈ 22.3%
The probability that 2 persons and only 2 persons in a random group of n persons can be calculated using the following expression*:
P(2 equal bd in group of n persons) = nC2(1-1/1461)(4/1461)Π2n-1[1-4(i-1)/1461] + nC2(1/1461)2Π2n-1[1-(4i-3)/1461]
with n=15, 30C2 = 105,
P(2 eq bd in group of 15) = 105(1-1/1461)(4/1461)[1-4/1461]
[1-8/1461][1-12/1461]∙∙∙[1-52/1461]
P(...) = 0.223263549... ≈ 22.3%
*You find this expression discussed in question "What is the probability that in a room of 8 people 2 have the same birthday ?". A simpler form of this expression that neglects February 29 of the leap day that gives a good
approximation is:
P(2 eq bd in group of n persons) = nC2(1/365)Π1n-1[1-(i-1)/365]
for n=15, this expression gives P(...) = 0.214918798... ≈ 21.5%
The probability of choosing 2 girls at random from group of 25 students of which10 are girls and 15 are boys is:P( 2 girls) = (10/25)∙(9/24) = 3/20 = 0.15 = 15%
I am not going to help you cheat in math class!!!!!!!!!!!!!
15/125 = 0.12
this is 15/91
The probability is 4/15
The ratio of girls to total students is 15:25, or 3:5. Three out of five students are girls so there would be a 60% probability that a girl would be chosen; a 2 out of 5 chance, or 40% probability that a boy would be chosen.
The probability is 15/25 = 3/5
To determine the probability of 15 random people all having the same birthday, consider each person one at a time. (This is for the non leap-year case.)The probability of any person having any birthday is 365 in 365, or 1.The probability of any other person having that same birthday is 1 in 365, or 0.00274.The probability, then, of 15 random people having the same birthday is the product of these probabilities, or 0.0027414 times 1, or 1.34x10-36.Note: This answer assumes also that the distribution of birthdays for a large group of people in uniformly random over the 365 days of the year. That is probably not actually true. There are several non-random points of conception, some of which are spring, Valentine's day, and Christmas, depending of culture and religion. That makes the point of birth, nine months later, also be non-uniform, so that can skew the results.
The probability is 15/25 = 3/5
The probability of choosing 2 girls at random from group of 25 students of which10 are girls and 15 are boys is:P( 2 girls) = (10/25)∙(9/24) = 3/20 = 0.15 = 15%
yes they have the same birthday. they were both born on December 15.
This is the same as the probability of choosing either a red of a blue marble. There are 5+4 out of 15 ways of doing this. The probability is therefore 9/15 = 3/5.
It is a probability; probability of side effect is .15 and probability of no side effect is .85.
December 15th 1986 is Max's birthday. Yes its the same as Ronnies

August 12Her birthday is the 12th of August, which is the same as her older sister, Christina. Lauren will be 15 this year.
15/125 = 0.12
