Solution

The probability of an event not occurring, often denoted as P(A'), is calculated by subtracting the probability of the event occurring from 1.

So, P(A') = 1 - P(A)

Given that P(A) = 0.61, we can substitute this into the equation:

P(A') = 1 - 0.61 = 0.39

Therefore, the probability of event A not occurring is 0.39 or 39% when rounded to two decimal places.
