Carbon-14, a radioactive isotope of carbon, decays at a rate of 14 disintegrations per minute (per gram of natural carbon). Assuming that the time between disintegration events has an exponential distribution, calculate the probability that such an event takes more than 12 seconds to occur. Round your answer to four decimal digits and do not include units in your answer.
