In two different universities, eagle behavior is studied, and for this purpose eagles are captured. Every eagle caught is released. The probability of an eagle being caught by the first university is 0.21. The probability of an eagle being caught by the second university is 0.4. It is known that the capture events are interdependent, the probability of an eagle being captured by both universities together is 0.04 What is the probability that the eagle will be caught by at least one of the universities?
