A study showed that 64.5% of occupants involved in a fatal car crash wore seat belts. Of those in a fatal car crash who wore seat belts, 4% were ejected from the vehicle. For those not wearing seat belts, 37% were ejected from the vehicle. Find the probability that a randomly selected person in a fatal car crash who was ejected from the vehicle was wearing a seatbelt.
