7 (a)
A coin was chosen at random and tossed. The probability that a fair coin was chosen and 'head' as an outcome is 1/3. The probability that a fair coin was chosen and 'tail' as an outcome is also 1/3. The probability that an unfair coin was chosen and 'head' as an outcome is 1/12. The probability that an unfair coin was chosen and 'tail' as an outcome is 1/4. Find the conditional probability that
i) Unfair coin chosen given that 'head' is the outcome.
ii) 'Head' is the outcome given that unfair coin is chosen.
i) Unfair coin chosen given that 'head' is the outcome.
ii) 'Head' is the outcome given that unfair coin is chosen.
