Answer:

about .84

Explanation:

I got about .84 because I added the total number of people married and the total number of people never married. 123+70=193. I then found the probability of 193 over the total number of people in the population. 193/231= .83549784

This decimal estimated is about .84.

The probability that the person is married or has never married is about .84.
