$A$ bag contains $5$ balls of unknown colours. There are equal chances that out of these five balls,there may be $0, 1, 2, 3, 4,$ or $5$ red balls. $A$ ball is taken out from the bag at random and is found to be red. The probability that it is the only red ball in the bag is

There are $10$ coins in a box, out of which $8$ are normal and the remaining are with heads on both sides. $A$ coin is chosen at random from the box and tossed $6$ times. If it shows heads each time, then the probability that the selected coin has heads on both sides is

For $k=1, 2, 3$,the box $B_k$ contains $k$ red balls and $(k+1)$ white balls. Let $P(B_1) = \frac{1}{2}$,$P(B_2) = \frac{1}{3}$,and $P(B_3) = \frac{1}{6}$. $A$ box is selected at random and a ball is drawn from it. If a red ball is drawn,then the probability that it comes from box $B_2$ is:
