To find the probability that the degree is not a bachelor's, given that the recipient is female, we need to find the total number of female recipients and then find the number of female recipients who did not receive a bachelor's degree.

Total number of female recipients = 341 + 805 = 1146
Number of female recipients who did not receive a bachelor's degree = 341 (associates) + 805 = 1146

Probability (degree is not a bachelor's | recipient is female) = Number of female recipients who did not receive a bachelor's degree / Total number of female recipients
= 1146 / 1146
= 1

Therefore, the probability that the degree is not a bachelor's, given that the recipient is female, is 1.
