    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given that one side of the pancake is burned. The pancake you were served cannot be the one that is not burned on either side. Therefore, you were either served the pancake burned on both sides, or the pancake that was only burned in one side. Thus, there is a 50% percent chance that the other side is also burned.
