**Probability Exercise**
The probability that an event will happen is given as \( P(E) = \frac{18}{31} \).
**Task:**
Find the probability that the event will not happen.
**Solution:**
The probability that the event will not happen is calculated using the formula:
\[ P(\text{not } E) = 1 - P(E) \]
Where \( P(E) \) is the probability that the event will happen. Substituting the given value:
\[ P(\text{not } E) = 1 - \frac{18}{31} \]
Simplify and express the answer as an integer or a simplified fraction.
**Note:**
You have a time limit of 1 hour, 44 minutes, and 35 seconds to complete this task.
