Events $E_{1}$ and $E_{2}$ form a partition of the sample space $S$. $A$ is any event such that $P(E_{1}) = P(E_{2}) = \frac{1}{2}$,$P(E_{2} | A) = \frac{1}{2}$,and $P(A | E_{2}) = \frac{2}{3}$. Then $P(E_{1} | A)$ is:

  • A
    $\frac{1}{2}$
  • B
    $\frac{2}{3}$
  • C
    $1$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{4}$
