The "correct" answer is 25% since there's four possible answers. However, since 25% is there twice, the correct answer is 50%. But you can't know that AND pick it at random, which is why it's funny.

The whole thing is a trick question. If you were to randomly pick 1 of 4 then you'd be right 25% of the time. But not only are there 2 answers that are 25%, if you actually pick an answer, then you haven't answered randomly. Even if you take a random sampling for the 25% answer, then half of the answers are 'right' because 25% is on there twice.

You can't actually answer it because in trying to choose the right answer you aren't choosing randomly as the question asks. It is simply a paradox. Actually this would be a good sanity test question for an AI. :lol:

They're very, very amateur, besides housing political arguments that sound rather like something from a 14-year-old.

Well yeah, the cartoons are bad by design, they were posted on a forum for MS Paint political cartoons.
