Suppose that 56% of all college seniors have a job prior to graduation. If a random sample of 55 college seniors is taken, approximate the probability that fewer than 28 have a job prior to graduation. Use the normal approximation to the binomial with a correction for continuity. Round your answer to at least three decimal places. Do not round any intermediate steps. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.)
