If $A, B$ and $C$ are three independent events of a random experiment such that $P(A \cap B^{c} \cap C^{c}) = \frac{1}{4}$,$P(A^{c} \cap B \cap C^{c}) = \frac{1}{8}$ and $P(A^{c} \cap B^{c} \cap C^{c}) = \frac{1}{4}$,then $P(A), P(B)$ and $P(C)$ are respectively

$A$ bag contains $2n$ coins,out of which $n-1$ are unfair with heads on both sides and the remaining are fair. One coin is picked from the bag at random and tossed. If the probability that a head appears in the toss is $\frac{41}{56}$,then the number of unfair coins in the bag is:

Let $E$ and $F$ be two independent events. The probability that both $E$ and $F$ happen is $\frac{1}{12}$ and the probability that neither $E$ nor $F$ happens is $\frac{1}{2}$. Then a value of $\frac{P(E)}{P(F)}$ is
