Suppose an unbiased coin is tossed 6 times. Each coin toss is independent of all previous coin tosses. Let E_1 be the event that among the second, fourth, and sixth coin tosses, there are at least two heads. Let E_2 be the event that among the first, second, third, and fifth coin tosses, there are equal number of heads and tails.
The conditional probability P(E_1|E_2) is equal to __________. (rounded off to one decimal place)
