Question 508283: Suppose that three students are selected at random from your class. What is the probability that at least one of these three students has a birthday this month? Answer by swincher4391(1107) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let's assume that this month has 31 days. Then the probability of having a birthday this month for one student is 31/365. Since there are 3 students, then the probability is (31*3)/365 = 93/365 <---- Answer
