A steel sample with 1.5 wt.% carbon (no other alloying elements present) is slowly cooled from 1100°C to just below the eutectoid temperature (723°C. A part of the iron-cementite phase diagram is shown in the figure. The ratio of the pro-eutectoid cementite content to the total cementite content in the microstructure that develops just below the eutectoid temperature is _______.
(Rounded off to two decimal places)
