@Jackpot Here is an edited post of mine explaining your observation on the experiment of randomly selecting 100 people (I wrote this when you asked me to try the experiment): Martinez39s:From these probabilities, you can see why you keep getting people with the same birthdays in your selection—the odds are greatly stacked in your favour (you have a 99.999969275% chance of getting at least two people with the same birthday). This is the same reason why people keep getting unsuccessful in their attempt to win the lottery— the odds are incredibly stacked against them. The popular Mega Millions multi-state lottery has odds of approximately 1 in 175,711,536. This is a 0.000000569% chance.jackpot:Nah! *yimu* Your question wasn't properly phrased, and it didn't make sense the way you presented it. I now understand what you were trying to ask. You should have asked "if 100 people are selected randomly what's the LIKELY number (or Likely range of number) of people who have birthday mates? This question is incredibly difficult to solve, that's if it has an answer.For instance, do you know that some great guys think that that angle question I posted earlier was not complete? Yet, Mrshape and others dealt mercilessly with the question here.The angle question is complete; I never thought it wasn't. Any mathematician who thinks that question isn't complete isn't that great afterall. Do you know that questions like the following have an answer?Ahhh! I won't even bother with this question. I can't kill myself. MrShape, naturalwaves |
jackpot:Sure! Even though any outcome is possible, I will way most likely get at least two people with the same birthday. This is because the probability of having at least two people with the same birthday is 0.99999969275 (99.999969275% chance). The probability of not having anyone with a birthday mate is 0.00000030725 (0.000030725% chance). So you see that event of having a selection in which no one has a birthday mate is a rare one just like winning a mega lottery. I calculated these probabilities in a post of mine to you. ![]() MrShape, naturalwaves, Jackpot |
@Emmaodet Making up nonexistent problems, or exaggerating their difficulties, and blaming these "problems"/difficulties on men and patriarchy are the natural talents of feminists. Many are already professionals and veterans in this talent. ![]() |
jackpot:The chances of winning a mega lottery in the United States of America is approximately 0 yet people still win. It would therefore be false to say that ANY person who plays the lottery will fail. The fact that a large group of people played the lottery 200 times without success isn't proof that no one can win the lottery. The odds of an event might be very large, but as long as the probability of that event isn't exactly 0 then that event can happen. |
jackpot:My reasoning is valid for a randomly selected group of 100 students. In fact, throughout this thread, based on my presumption of what your question could possibly mean (as you stated it at first), I have been working with the idea that the group of 100 students were randomly selected. Let me explain something. When you randomly select a group of 100 students, you have randomly selected a group of 100 birthdays. Each selected birthday has been selected from 365 possible birthdays (dates in a year), and repetition is allowed as you randomly select other birthdays in the group of 100 birthdays. Using the selection of humans, the emboldened statement is tantamount to saying each person from the randomly selected group of hundred has a birthday that is one of the 365 dates (birthdays) in a year, and a person in the group could have a birthday mate in the group (remember that repetition of birthdays is allowed). When you want to randomly selecting a group of 100 people (birthdays), here are some possible logical questions you can ask if no further information is given or no possible consideration is made (assuming a year contains 365 days): (1) What is the probability that no two people share the same birthday? Ans: 365P100 ÷ 365100 = 365! ÷ (265! × 365100) = 0.00000030725(2) What is the probability that at least two people share the same a birthday Ans: 1 – (365P100 ÷ 365100) = 1 – [365! ÷ (265! × 365100)] = 0.99999969275Naturalwaves got this, but he applied it to your question which doesn't have anything to do with probability. (3) What is the number of ways of selecting a group of hundred people such that no two shares the same birthday. Ans: 365P100 = 365!/265!(4) What is the number ways of selecting a group of hundred people such that at least two have the same birthday 365100 – 365P100 = 365100 – (365!/265!)This question of yours doesn't make sense: You have 100 students only in a class. What is the expected number of students in the class that do not have birthday mates?Either you mistakenly left out something or you didn't state the question properly. If this question is complete, and there is nothing more to it, then it's illogical even if you have a unique group of 100 students or a randomly selected group of 100 students.

sherylbakky:Some people will just be hyping their undergraduate course in Nigeria, thereby giving themselves pious hope. I remember how a friend studying Marine Science was confidently saying that he could be employed after school in some organisation, cooperation, and company. The guy is now a photographer. I haven't contacted him in a long time. Perhaps he might have gotten employed by an organisation, cooperation, and company. ![]() |
@Jackpot In my last reply to you, I didn't mention that I haven't been following this thread thoroughly. Is the rephrased question you sent to me complete? Perhaps you left out the fact that certain number of people shared birthdays in a certain way. Perhaps, your rephrased question is indeed complete, and therefore irrational. Here is my last reply: https://www.nairaland.com/1147658/nairaland-mathematics-clinic/270#89041840 |
jackpot: ![]() Your question doesn't make a shred of sense, or it is incomplete. If I have 100 students in a class, I need to know their birthdays before I can know the expected number of students that have no birthday mates because there are 365100 possible ways a group of 100 students can be assigned birthdays. Let's pick four possibilities with a class of 100: 1) If no one has a birthday mate, the expected number of students with no birthday mates is 100. 2) If only two students share the birthday and others don't have birthday mates, the expected number of students with no birthday mate is 98. 3) if three students share the same birthdays, two students share another birthday, and the rest have no birthday mates, the expected number of students with no birthday mates is 95. 4) If all students share the same birthday, the expected number of students with no birthday mates is 0. So you see, you need to know the birthdays of each student to know the expected number of students with no birthday mates. Edit: I could list many more possibilities. In fact, I can list a possibility to arrive at any expected number (from 0 to 100) of students with no birthday mates. |
jackpot: I said it, but others were telling me I need probability. Naturalwaves found the probability of selecting a group of 100 in which at least two share a birthday assuming we have 365 days in a year. His solution doesn't make sense because number of birthdays can't be a decimal, neither can it be a probability.Nevertheless, I am yet to understand your question. •• If you are looking for the number of possible ways in which no two people in a group of 100 share the same birthday (assuming we have 365 days in a year) then your answer is 365P265 = 365!/265!•• If you seek the number of possible ways in which at least two people in a group of 100 share the same birthday (assuming we have 365 days in a year) then your answer is 365100 – (365P265) = 365100 – 365!/265!I repeat, I still don't understand your question except I presume what you could possibly mean. |

dejt4u:Well, I am not deep into probability (and combinatorics.) I assumed the question solely had to deal with permutation. ![]() |
naturalwaves:Jackpot never mentioned anything about probability. How did probability get involved in the solution? ![]() |

A feminist-like strawmanning engineered to make women the victims while vilifying males as opressors, and subtly elevating the female gender above the male gender. Such bleating and whining over a nonexistent problem (or at least, a problem not perpetrated by the overwhelming majority men) is typical of feminists, especially when they cry victim. If you have equal rights and opportunities as men, but you still prefer to be a victim, and attribute blame to men, society, etc. over a nonexistent problem, you are on your own. |

whitelotus:The stupidity those people are displaying is a dangerous one. |
jackpot:Do you actually mean the number of possible ways in which the students can have their birthdays without any two sharing the same birthday? If that is what you mean, your answer is 365P100 = 365!/265! |

I don't think I would ever try it.
