It's a paradox, which means it has no solution. The only way you can make this question solvable is to say that random means something else, for instance a random distribution where you have a 10% chance of picking A, a 20% chance of B, a 60% chance of picking C and a 15% chance of picking D. In that scenario, C would be the correct answer. But a situation like that is the only way this question is solvable. |

None of the above
You have a 33.333% chance of guessing the right answer. A&D - 25% B - 50% C - 60% Even though there are 4 choices, 2 of them are the same answer, so really there are only 3 different answers to choose from. The question has nothing to do with what the answers say other than the 2 that are the same (A & D), the numbers are there to confuse you. It has everything to do with the number of different answers you have to choose from. There are 3 different answers ...25% 50% and 60% 100 / 3 = 33.333%

there are contradictions. It's a paradox.

you have a 2 out of 4 chance of picking it correct, 2/4 *100 = 50%
