A hydrogen atom is in the state ∣ψ⟩=821∣ψ200⟩+37∣ψ210⟩+421∣ψ311⟩|\psi\rangle = \sqrt{\frac{8}{21}}|\psi_{200}\rangle + \sqrt{\frac{3}{7}}|\psi_{210}\rangle + \sqrt{\frac{4}{21}}|\psi_{311}\rangle, where ∣ψnlm⟩|\psi_{nlm}\rangle are normalised eigenstates. If L^2\hat{L}^2 is measured in this state, the probability of obtaining the value 2ℏ22\hbar^2 is
