In a survey of high school graduates, it was found that if a graduate went on to college full time, there was a 29% chance that they would work at the same time.  If a graduate attended college part time, there was a 78% chance that they would work at the same time.  If a high school graduate didn't go on to college, there was a 94% chance that they would work.  At the time of the survey, 67% of high school graduates attended college full time and 24% of high school graduates attended college part time.  If a randomly selected high school graduate worked, what is the probability that they attended college full time?  Enter your answer in decimal form and round to four decimal places if necessary.
