I'd just like to point out, C ruins the whole question. For C to be true, none of the answers can be correct. But then that makes C incorrect. It can't be 0% because that would make Answer C correct which would make it 25%. Which would make A and D correct. Which makes B correct. Which makes A and D correct. Which makes B correct. But because of C's paradox, one of them HAS to be correct. The problem is, if they're all correct, none of them are (A+B+D=75% correct). So, it's an impossible question to answer. The only correct way to proceed is not to answer. And in this situation, the best solution would be blatantly hitting on your teacher and telling her that her beauty is distracting you too much.
Sorry for the long post.
Actually I'm not.
At all.
Actually, there are four answers and two are the same, so only b would be correct making it a and d. Which would make it b... So none of the answers are correct. Hey, why are we thinking about this? This is supposed to be a joke, right? That's what funsubstance is. Am I correct?!
THERE IS A SIMPLE ANSWER!
There is no correct answer. That's the answer. Any choice causes a paradox. This isn't the same as answer C, answer C is not correct, it creates another paradox as navybrats3 pointed out.
Everyone is over complicating it. You answer based on the question. Looking at the question alone the answer is 25%. Just because there are 2 correct answers to this one multiple choice problem doesn't change what the question is asking. A or D is the correct answer.
It's asking if you did it randomly, what are the odds of you getting it correct. If choosing either A or D is correct, then you'd have a 50% chance to choose the right one.
I think I see where you're going with this. But that still doesn't take into account the double paradox in the answers themselves. Also, I sure hope we're all looking at this as a math problem, otherwise we'll never solve it.
Yes when you take into account the answer when trying to find the solution to the problem it does create a paradox, or double if you will, but in just solving the question the paradox is irrelevant
The answer is: There is a 50% chance you will get the correct answer by picking A or D randomly.
No. I changed my mind. This isn't correct. Look above at my reply to navybrats3.
Wait a fucking minute!!! I GET IT! It's not a real multiple choie question it's a word problem where you have to find a numeric answer not pick a,b,c, or d. Te correct answer is 50%. Not B mind you. If you look at the question the obvious answer is 25% but looking at the multiple choice answers it gives you as part if the SAMPLE PROBLEM 2 choices are 25% therefore without choosing any letter value one would simply write "you have a 50% chance of getting the correct answer."
If there's no answer, then you'd pick C.
Which would be the answer.
Which would mean that there IS an answer.
Which would make C wrong.

A and D cancel each other out. So you're odds are 1/2, making B correct.
The chance f having one oout of 4 right is 25%, however option A and D are the same so your chance is dubbled thus 50%
Heh
You're right... I shouldn't be encouraging them.
I'm okay now. Thanks.
