A sample of 400 adults found that 82 have high blood pressure. However, 98 of those studied reported being unwilling to change their diet. Based on this sample, if an adult is chosen at random, what is the probability that he or she is open to trying to eat more healthfully? Express your answer as a fraction in lowest terms or a decimal rounded to the nearest millionth.
