These were the choices I found on the internet:
0.1135 
0.2450
0.9423 
0.9932

Other sources can confirm that it is not the second choice. So I'd say it's the third one. Multiply the 98% to the 25% chance of having no allergy to get 0.2450. And for the 0.26, 98% times the 2% percent of error add this to the percent of having no allergy - 0.245 / 0.26 = 0.9423 or 94.23%

Answer:

C = .9423
