Why You Only Need 23 People for a Shared Birthday

Ever heard of the birthday paradox? It's mind-boggling! Turns out, you only need 23 people in a room for there to be a more than 50% chance that two of them share the same birthday. Sounds crazy, right? But it's all about the math! With just a handful of folks, the probability of shared birthdays starts to shoot up faster than you'd think. So next time you're at a party, take a moment to play the birthday guessing game—it's bound to surprise you!
