Answer:

0.0849

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's consider the event: a birthday takes place in March. The probability (P) of such event is:

[tex]P = \frac{favorable\ cases }{possible\ cases}[/tex]

The favorable cases are 31 because March has 31 days.

The possible cases are 365 because there are 365 days in a year.

The probability of a birthday being in March is:

[tex]P=\frac{31}{365} =0.0849[/tex]
