A biologist finds that 45% of fruit flies have short wings and 50% have eye defects. Assuming these two events are independent, what is the probability that a randomly selected fruit fly has neither short wings nor eye defects? Note: Write your answer as a decimal to 4 decimal places -- not as a percentage nothing
