assuming that the probability of being born in may is equal to all other months then one person born in may is 1/12, so 2 people born in may is 1/12*1/12=1/144

What is the probability that a person chosen at random was born on a Saturday or Sunday?
2:7 edit: That makes the assumption that: -birth isn't induced for various reasons - people tend to try for induced births more on weekends so that it doesn't interfere with the work week -the ratio of people born on any given day of the week is 1:1:1:1:1:1:1
What is probability if 12 person born in different calendar month?
Rather a vague question. Are the people related? Obviously thousands of people are born in every month, so I guess you mean people who are connected in some way.
A women is going to have 6 children What is the probability that all 6 will be boys?
if we assume that the probability for a girl being born is the same as a boy being born: (1/2)^6 = 0.015625 = 1.5625%
What is the probability of being born on a Monday?
1 out of 7 I think so!

50% then 25%
What is the probability of you and 2 complete random people sharing a birthday?
Birthdays are not uniformly distributed over the year. Also, if you were born on 29 February, for example, the probability would be much smaller. Ignoring these two factors, the probability is 0.0082
What is the probability of your birthday being the same as mine?
The probability of two people's birthday being the same is actually more likely than many would think. The key thing is to note that it doesn't matter what the first person's birthday is. All we need to work out is the probability that the second person has a birthday on any specific day. This probability is 1/365.25 The probability that they were born on June 10th is 1/365.25. The probability that they were born on February 2nd is 1/365.25 and the probability that they were born on the same day as you is 1/365.25

The dinosaurs were born because nature selected them.
How many people have the same name and birthday as you?
The first thing to note is that names and birthdays are independent of each other. Someone born on 5th June isn't more likely to be called Chris, and someone called Katie isn't more likely to be born on 20th October, or whatever. Thus the probability is equal to the probability someone has your name, multiplied by the probability someone has your birthday. The latter is just 1/365.25, as you are equally likely to be born on each day. The former could be anything. If you have a really common name, that 1 in 1,000 people have, then the probability of someone having the same birthday and name as you will be 1/365,250 Multiply this probability by the world population (which we'll round to 7 billion) and you get: 7,000,000,000/365,250 = 19,165 so 19,165 people would have the same name and birthday as you!
What is the probability that a person who was born in April was born after April 20?
There are 30 days in april. 10 of these days are after the 20th, so the probability will be 10 out of 30, or when we simplify 1 out of 3
