Of the travelers arriving at a small airport, 40 % fly on major airlines, 40 % fly on privately owned planes, and the remainder fly on commercially owned planes not belonging to a major airline. Of those traveling on the major airlines, 80 % are traveling for business reasons, whereas 60% of those arriving on private planes and 50% of those arriving on the other commercially owned planes are traveling for business reasons. Suppose that we randomly select one person arriving at the airport. Step 1 of 3: What is the probability that the person randomly selected is traveling on business? Round your answer to two decimal places, if necessary.
