Using conditional probability, it is found that there is a 0.1 = 10% probability that the chosen coin was the fair coin.
Conditional Probability
In which
- P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.
is the probability of both A and B happening.
- P(A) is the probability of A happening.
In this problem:
- Event A: Three heads.
- Event B: Fair coin.
The probability associated with 3 heads are:
out of 0.5(fair coin).
- 1 out of 0.5(biased).
Hence:
The probability of 3 heads and the fair coin is:
Then, the conditional probability is:
0.1 = 10% probability that the chosen coin was the fair coin.
