3. Give the defininition of common knowledge of rationality.

4. For the following games predict rational behaviour or explain why this cannot be done:

   1. $ A = \begin{pmatrix} 2 & 1\\ 1 & 1\end{pmatrix} \qquad B = \begin{pmatrix} 1 & 1\\ 1 & 3\end{pmatrix} $

   2. $ A = \begin{pmatrix} 2 & 1 & 3 & 17\\ 27 & 3 & 1 & 1\\ 4 & 6 & 7 & 18 \end{pmatrix} \qquad B = \begin{pmatrix} 11 & 9 & 10 & 22\\ 0 & 1 & 1 & 0\\ 2 & 10 & 12 & 0 \end{pmatrix} $

   3. $ A = \begin{pmatrix} 3 & 3 & 2 \\ 2 & 1 & 3 \end{pmatrix} \qquad B = \begin{pmatrix} 2 & 1 & 3 \\ 2 & 3 & 2 \end{pmatrix} $

   4. $ A = \begin{pmatrix} 3 & -1\\ 2 & 7\end{pmatrix} \qquad B = \begin{pmatrix} -3 & 1\\ 1 & -6\end{pmatrix} $
