Clue is a board game in which you must deduce three details surrounding a murder. In the original game of Clue, the guilty person can be chosen from 6 people, and there are 6 different possible weapons and 9 possible rooms. At one point in the game, you have narrowed the possibilities down to 3 people, 5 weapons, and 7 rooms. What is the probability of making a random guess of the guilty person, murder weapon, and location from your narrowed-down choices, and the guess being correct? Enter a fraction or round answer to 4 decimal places, if necessary.
