16. The answer is 23
With 23 people in a room, the probability of a shared birthday is 50.7%.

With 15 people it is 25.3%

With 30 people it is 70.1%, quite a bit lower than what you state.

17. Darn. Probability theory was never my subject.
I just read the "30 people is 99%" in a trivia book a long time ago.
