In a certain year, 12,479 professional train pushers are diagnosed with carpal tunnel. The top cities for such diagnoses are Tokyo with 3,460, Osaka with 3,029, and Kyoto with 1,676. If a professional train pusher recently diagnosed with carpal tunnel is randomly selected, what is the probability that they are from somewhere other than Tokyo, Kyoto or Osaka?
