The probability of being born in May or on the 30th of any month

We have 12 months in a year

Probability of being born in may is 1/12

It is 1/12 because we only have one May in a year

OR 30th of every month

Out of all the months, only 11 months are upto 30 except February

The probability of being born on the 30th of any month is 11/12

In probability, or means addition

Therefore, we have

1/12 + 11/12

0.083 + 0.9166

= 0.9996

The answer is 0.9996 or approximately 1
