More respondents (900) preferred sightseeing to laying on a beach (600). Only 10 respondents indicated they prefer the beach and visiting Manhattan; conversely 160 respondents indicated they prefer sightseeing and visiting Miami. Given this information, what is the probability that a randomly selected vacationer would choose sightseeing, given they have already chosen to visit Miami? Round your answer to three decimal places.
