Shared Birthday Probability

What is the probability that two people in the class have the same birthday (same day and month)... incredibly high... I think it was around 95% for a 5-student class.

Challenge a group of people and then test it...

Game Theory Game

Every student should select an integer between 0 and 100.
I will calculate the average of the numbers chosen by all students in the class.
The winner of the game is the person who chooses the number that is closest to two-thirds of the average of the numbers chosen by the class.
