The probability that two people randomly selected from our class will have the same birthday (month and day) is much higher than the probability that two people randomly selected from our class will have the same birthday date (month, day, and year).True or False?

In this problem there shoult be more people that have the same month and day of birthday than the people that have the same month, day and year of birthday so in this case is more probable to pick randomly 2 people with the same month and day so the statement is TRUE
