Problem

In answering a question on a multiple choice test, a student either knows the answer or guesses. Let 3/43/4 be the probability that he knows the answer and 1/41/4 be the probability that he guesses. Assuming that a student who guesses the answer will be correct with probabilities 1/41/4, what is the probability that the student knows the answer given that he answered it correctly?
