Did a bunch of similar questions in an artificial intelligence computer science course last year. It's not that difficult really...
( won't give the solution or hints for obvious reasons )

you can fill in everything but there are so many variations which make it tricky and you can end up with the wrong answer. its not as straight forward as you might think it is.
