In a class of 40 students, 25 are girls. A probability model is designed to help figure

out the probability of a boy's or a girl's name being drawn from a class list. The model
is designed using a bag with 40 pieces of paper, each labeled with a student's name.
Based on this probability model, what is the probability that the first name drawn
randomly from the bag would represent a boy's name? Express your answer as a
decimal
