An auto insurance company classifies its customers in three categories: poor, satisfactory, and preferred. Each year, satisfactory and 15% of those in the satisfactory category are moved to preferred. Also, 15% in the preferred category are moved to the satisfactory category, and 15% of those in the satisfactory category are moved to the poor category. Customers are never moved from poor to preferred, or conversely, in a single year. Assuming these percentages remain valid over a long period of time, how many customers can the company expect to have in each category in the long run? Poor = % (Round to the nearest tenth if necessary.)

An auto insurance company classifies its customers in three categories: poor, satisfactory, and preferred. Each year, 30% of those in the poor category are moved to satisfactory and 15% of those in the satisfactory category are moved to preferred. Also, 15% in the preferred category are moved to the satisfactory category, and 15% of those in the satisfactory category are moved to the poor category. Customers are never moved from poor to preferred, or conversely, in a single year. Assuming these percentages remain valid over a long period of time, how many customers can the company expect to have in each category in the long run? Poor = % (Round to the nearest tenth if necessary.)
