A boy has a choice between 3 paths. Each path has the possibility of leading to treasure. The probability of choosing path one and two are 0.5 and 0.4, respectively. The probability of finding treasure for each path are 0.6, 0.25, and 0.8 for path one, two, and three, respectively. Given the cave dweller did not find treasure, what is the probability that the boy chose path three?
