Help with Math Bonus Question!?

[PHiuR]

question::


theres a room with 39 people
whats the probability that 2 people have the same day and month birthday as you but not the same year. (actually not sure if its not the same year..or if year doesnt matter)

i know its something with the Permutation but i dont remember it. truly appreciated!

if it's exactly two, assuming you are not in the room and that it is only that year doesn't matter, that leap years dont' exist:

((364/365) ^ 37) * ((1/365) ^ 2)
