A Society of Women Engineers (SWE) chapter has a record number of freshmen members.  Let F denote that a member is a freshman and F’ denote that a member is not a freshman.  P(F) = 0.30. Additionally, this particular SWE chapter has a large number of Mechanical Engineering (ME) majors.  Let ME denote that a member is an ME major and ME’ denote that they are not an ME major. P(ME) = 0.72.  It is known that the probability a SWE member is a freshman ME major is equal to 0.216.  Determine the probability that a randomly selected SWE member is a freshman or an ME major.  Express your answer to three decimal places.
