Answer: 0.623
Explanation:
Given that seasons are equally likely and all 4 seasons (winter, spring, summer, fall) occur at least once each among their birthdays
Total outcomes: Each person is allotted a season out of 4. Hence 48 possibilities
Number of Outcomes that one or more season has no student having their birthday:
Using Inclusion and Exclusion, 4C1*38 - 4C2*28 + 4C3*18 [i.e. Exclude 1 season - Exclude 2 season + exclude 3 season, also note that we can't exclude all the 4 seasons]
Probability that one or more season has no student having their birthday:
(4C1*38 - 4C2*28 + 4C3*18 ) / 48 = 0.377
Required probability that all 4 seasons (winter, spring, summer, fall) occur at least once each among their birthdays:
1-0.377=0.623
