Only 1% of students at your school are from Quebec. One day, you
strike a friendship with a new student named Veronica. Soon, you
find out she speaks French. Among the students who are not from
Quebec, only 2% speak French. By contrast, 98% of students from
Quebec speak French. Based on this evidence, what is the
probability that Veronica is from Quebec, expressed as a percentage
rounded to the nearest integer? (Your answer should be a number
between 0 and 100 with no percentage sign.)
