1) P(he pass though bejing on the way to Harbin)

= P(he travel from Hong Kong to Guangzhou by express train first,then he fly to Beijing and finally go on to Harbin. ) + P(he do not wish pass through Guangzhou , he fly from HK to Beijing directy first and then go on the Harbin.)

= 2/3 * (1 - 4/7) + (1- 2/3)

= 13/21

By the above result , the probability of he pass through Bejing is
13/21, and
P(he travel from Hong Kong to Guangzhou by express train first,then he fly to Beijing and finally go on to Harbin. ) = 2/3 * (1- 4/7) = 2/7,

So P(Guangzhou on the way to Harbin ,given that he pass through Bejing.) =( 2/7) / ( 13/21)

= 6 / 13
