Answer:
(999,186)/(1,000,000)

Explanation:

It is known that for any event A , we have


P(\overline{A})=1-P(A) , where
\overline{A} is representing not A.

Given : The probability that a person will die in the next year =
(814)/(1000,000)

Then, the probability that the person will not die in the next year will be :_


1-(814)/(1,000,000)\\\\\\=(1,000,000-814)/(1,000,000)\\\\=(999186)/(1,000,000)

Hence, the probability that the person will not die in the next year
=(999186)/(1,000,000)
