If a computer code is correctly programmed, it gives 90% acceptable results. But if it is not correctly programmed, it gives only 40% acceptable results. From previous experience, it is observed that only 80% of codes are correctly programmed. If after a certain programming, the code gives 2 acceptable results, then the approximate probability that the code is correctly programmed is
