Suppose that for the opening ceremony, a skydiver carrying the flaglets of the participating countries will be hired to "drop" into the field with a land area of 75 meters by 40 meters. The skydiver is sure that he will land within the area of the field. Moreover, an additional incentive will be given to him if he lands on a mat measuring 20 meters by 15 meters that is to be randomly laid out on the field. If the skydiver has no prior knowledge of the mat's location, what is the probability that he will receive an additional incentive?
