An urn contains 5 white balls and 7 red balls. A second urn contains 7 white balls and 6 red balls. An urn is selected, and a ball is randomly drawn from the selected urn. The probability of selecting the first urn is 0.61. If the ball is white, find the probability that the first urn was selected. (Enter answer as a decimal with at least 4 correct decimal places)
