bag contains 4 coins. You are told that one of them is normal coin; 2 coins are double headed, and 1 is double tailed. You pick out a coin C from the bag uniformly at ramdom. First, you toss C for first time. What is the probability that the lower face of the coin is heads? Then , you check and see that the upper face of the coin C is a head. What is the conditional probability that the lower face is

You have 2 biased coins. Coin A comes up heads with probability 1/4, while coin B comes upheads with probability 3/4. However, you don’t know which is which, so you choose a coinrandomly and flip it. If the flip is heads, you guess the flipped coin is B, otherwise you guess it iscoin A. What is the probability that your guess is correct?
