Question
If the probability of happening of an event A is 0.46. What will be the probability of not happening of the event A?
Solution
P(A) = 0.46
Let P(B) be the probability of not happening of event A
We know,
P(A) + P(B) = 1
P(B) = 1 – P(A)
P(B) = 1 – 0.46
P(B) = 0.54
Hence the probability of not happening of event A is 0.54
