Answer: =74.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The percentage of residents in the neighborhood hire gardeners=25.3%

i.e. The probability of residents in the neighborhood hire gardeners=0.253

Let A denote the event of hiring gardeners.

Then [tex]P(A)=0.253[/tex]

We know that for any event A , the probability of not occuring the event A will be given by :-

[tex]\text{P(A')=1-P(A)}[/tex]

[tex]\\\\\Rightarrow\text{P(A')}=1-0.253\\\\\Rightarrow\ \text{P(A')}=0.747=74.7%[/tex]

Hence, the probability that that someone in the neighborhood does not hire a gardener=74.7%
