In an entrance test, there are multiple-choice questions. There are four possible answers to each question, of which one is correct. The probability that a student knows the answer to a question is $9/10$. If he gets the correct answer to a question, then the probability that he was guessing is

  • A
    $37/40$
  • B
    $1/37$
  • C
    $36/37$
