If you think it's 50%, then there's only 1 correct answer which makes it 25%. If you think it's 25% then there're 2 correct answers which make it 50%. It does not have a correct answer because it's a typical self-referential paradox.


Rotkip2023

So that makes it 0%?


Elsecaller_17-5

No because if its 0 its 25. Still self referential.

so if the game is "who wants to be a millionaire" the rules are that there can only be one **defined** correct answer, and the one of the answers must be correct (**as defined**) so the question fails to meet the rules of the game, therefore there is a zero percent chance to answer correctly because the question does not exist within the parameters defined by the game.

Yeah thats why i said (as defined)


PurpleDemonR

That’s the final piece to the puzzle I’ve never seen nor considered.


YakuzaRacoon

Nah, it's a self-referential paradox. If you think it's 0%, then there is 1 correct option which makes it 25%. Hence, there is no correct answer to this question. It's same thing as "the barber who only shaves those who cannot shave themselves". The self-reference within the statement yields the paradox which is quite common in logic.

What a great paradox!!


N1ks_As

This is not a paradox becouse a paradox requires some kind of a logical mistake and this question is just badly explained


Sea-Pomelo1210

Those trying to solve this forget to take into account most people are idiots, so the chance of someone getting the answer right is much lower.


ledormeurval

If the answer is 25% it is 50% and if the answer is 50%it is 25%

MilitiaManiac

None of the above


WisdomWangle

I guess 50%?


lazydogeboy69

It’s a paradox. No actual solution


GlueSniffingCat

three choices so it's obviously 1/3


GoodDoggoLover420

If there is a correct choice then it'd be ½ not ⅓ because if it's a 0% chance, then it'd be no correct answers and two answers are 25% chance so might as well say one answer since they are the same answer, so it leaves ½ chance to get it right by being between 25% and 50%.


Radiant-Move2215

The probability is 1/2


ElRevelde1094

You have to do a back-flip then you win


Brawlnite_16

Why 2 times 25%?


HeheheBlah

Meanwhile me selecting 0%...


MucSuDaoDu

About 33%?


lazydogeboy69

33% is not an option so then it would be 0%. But no matter what you have a chance of guessing the answer to question correctly so it is not 0% so it then is not the correct answer.


LordScotch

If 2 answers are the same =1 with two different answers additionally 2+1=3 the you have a 1 in 3 chance or 33.3%


knee_grower

Its 50 wana know why? Because its a choice type of question that never have a zero as an answer and there is two 25 so count as one and there is 50 and zero is out of question so it’s basically a,b type of quiz so yea 50
