Explanation / Answer

2) SEE THE PERCENTAGE IS ALSO A SYMBOLIC REPRSENTATION FOR THE PROBABILITY,

HERE THE 23.9% ARE CATHOLIC WHICH MEANS THAT OF THE TOTAL POPULATION 23.9% WILL BE CATHOLIC

HENCE THE CHANCES OF ANY RANDOM PERSON BEING CATHOLIC = 0.239

SO PERSON SELECTED BEING NON CATHOLIC = 1- 0.239 = 0.761

AS PERCENTAGE ALSO REPRESENTS THE CHANCE.
