Answer:

0.7063

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Number of students = 30

Number of days in a year = 365

P(atleast 2 people share same birthday) = 1 - p(none share same Birthday)

p(none share same Birthday) =

(365! / (365 - 30)!) * 1/365^30

(365! / 335!) * 1/365^30

365! ÷ (335! * 365^30)

= 0.2936837

P(atleast 2 people share same birthday) :

1 - 0.2936837

= 0.7063163

= 0.7063 * 100%

= 70.63%
