How many birthdays are there on any given day on planet earth.

[FrustratedUser]

There's a lot of them but how many are there on average?

Or, you know, ~6 billion / ~365.25

The question is flawed and assumes everyone goes by the Julian calendar.

We know he was trying to be slick. This isn't our first rodeo.
But he didn't actually post the list.

Also assumes that people don't get to baby making more at one point of the year than others.

Huh...which reminds me...what do you do if someone is born on February 29th of a leap year?

Maybe he should have put "6.6billion/365.25"
Since the approx. pop is 6.6bn.
Which gives you an average of 18million birthdays per day.

"~" indicates "approximately"

At any rate, I was using a population of 6.7 billion, which is much closer to today's estimated world population.

I thought most people were using the Gregorian calendar today? Wasn't the Julian calendar replaced in the middle ages by one of the popes?

I bet Wikipedia has an article on it.
