Consider an experiment of tossing a coin repeatedly until the outcomes of two consecutive tosses are the same. If the probability of a random toss resulting in a head is $\frac{1}{3}$,then the probability that the experiment stops with heads is:

Let there be three independent events $E_{1}, E_{2}$ and $E_{3}$. The probability that only $E_{1}$ occurs is $\alpha$,only $E_{2}$ occurs is $\beta$ and only $E_{3}$ occurs is $\gamma$. Let $p$ denote the probability that none of the events occur,which satisfies the equations $(\alpha - 2\beta)p = \alpha\beta$ and $(\beta - 3\gamma)p = 2\beta\gamma$. All the given probabilities are assumed to lie in the interval $(0, 1)$. Then,$\frac{\text{Probability of occurrence of } E_{1}}{\text{Probability of occurrence of } E_{3}}$ is equal to ..........
