If there are 10 people in a room, what is the probability that at least 2 of them share a birthday (month and day)? Let's assume that people are equally likely to be born on each of the 365 days of the year, and that none of them were born on February 29. Give an exact version of your answer, and then also an approximate decimal answer/percentage. The numbers involved are pretty big, so a computer can help compute them. One option is to use WolframAlpha.com to do the approx
