To calculate the specificity, sensitivity, negative predictive value, and positive predictive value of FBS (Fasting Blood Sugar) test, we need the following information:

True Positive (TP) = 98 (number of people who tested positive with FBS)
False Positive (FP) = 140 - 98 = 42 (number of people who tested negative with FBS but were actually positive)
True Negative (TN) = 1000 - 140 - 42 = 818 (number of people who tested negative with FBS and were actually negative)
False Negative (FN) = 100 - 98 = 2 (number of people who tested positive with FBS but were actually negative)

Now we can calculate the required values:

Specificity = TN / (TN + FP) = 818 / (818 + 42) = 818 / 860 ≈ 0.9535 or 95.35%

Sensitivity = TP / (TP + FN) = 98 / (98 + 2) = 98 / 100 = 0.98 or 98%

Negative Predictive Value (NPV) = TN / (TN + FN) = 818 / (818 + 2) = 818 / 820 ≈ 0.9988 or 99.88%

Positive Predictive Value (PPV) = TP / (TP + FP) = 98 / (98 + 42) = 98 / 140 ≈ 0.7 or 70%
