The nurse is taking a family history and explaining the genetic risk pattern of Huntington's disease to the client. Before genetic testing is performed, the nurse calculates the pre-test probability (as a percentage, from 0% to 100%) that this client has inherited the Huntington's disease gene mutation. What is the client's pre-test probability of carrying the mutation, expressed as a percentage? Record the answer as a whole number.
