The diagram shows a circle divided into three sectors A, B and C with central angles \(90^\circ\), \(120^\circ\) and \(150^\circ\), respectively. Sectors A and B are shaded. The arrow is spun and cannot land on a boundary. Let \(A\), \(B\), \(C\) and \(S\) denote landing in sector A, B, C and a shaded region, respectively.

  1. \(P(B)\);
  2. \(P(S)\);
  3. \(P(A|S)\).
