$A$ ship is fitted with three engines $E_1, E_2$,and $E_3$. The engines function independently of each other with respective probabilities $\frac{1}{2}, \frac{1}{4}$,and $\frac{1}{4}$. For the ship to be operational,at least two of its engines must function. Let $X$ denote the event that the ship is operational and let $X_1, X_2$,and $X_3$ denote respectively the events that the engines $E_1, E_2$,and $E_3$ are functioning. Which of the following is (are) true?
$(A) P(X_1^c \mid X) = \frac{3}{16}$
