In a two-level cache system, the access times of  L1L_1 and L2L_2 caches are 1 and 8 clock cycles, respectively. The miss penalty from the L2L_2 cache to main memory is 18 clock cycles. The miss rate of L1L_1 cache is twice that of​​L2​​L_2. The average memory access time (AMAT) of this cache system is 2 cycles. The miss rates of L1L_1 and ​​L2​​L_2 respectively are
