Probability of not drawing an element of a certain element in an “binomial drawing” experiment

I randomly draw 3 elements from a population of 100. What is the probability of a certain element in my whole population NOT being including in my drawing?
I know I can draw $C^3_{100} = 161.700$ different ways but the probability mentioned above I cannot compute?

This looks a lot like a "homework" question but I am actually exploring a Scenario optimization model in which I need to compute these kinds of probabilites

If you cannot draw the 'certain element', then the favourable draws are $binom{99}{3}$.

This follows a simple case of a hypergeometric distribution where $K=1$ and $k=0$.

P(a certain element is not in draw/sample)=$frac{{99choose3}}{{100choose3}}=frac{99times98times97}{100times99times98}=97/100.$
