As per Hardy Weinberg Principle, in a population mating in a random manner without any evolutionary force, the allele frequencies remains constant from generations to generations

Thus, sum of P and Q,  

P = frequency of common allele

Q = Frequency of less common allele

Remains constant.  

P + Q = 1

If P = 0.68

Then Q = 1- P

= 1- 0.68

= 0.32
