My opinion:
The question isn’t asking you which of the options is the correct answer, it’s asking what your odds are of choosing the correct answer. Regardless of the value of the choices.
The question is asking for a value. Not one of the following letter choice.
Without knowing the correct answer, assuming one is correct, a random guess out of 4 choice answers would be a 1 in 4 chance. 25%
There’s a 1 in 4 chance so the answer is 25%, but there are 2 "25%"s so 50% is the correct answer, but there is only one “50%” So there’s a 1 in 4 chance so the answer is 25%, but there are 2 "25%"s so 50% is the correct answer, but there is only one “50%” So there’s a 1 in 4 chance so the answer is 25%, but there are 2 "25%"s so 50% is the correct answer, but there is only one “50%” So there’s a 1 in 4 chance so the answer is 25%, but there are 2 "25%"s so 50% is the correct answer, but there is only one “50%” So there’s a 1 in 4 chance so the answer is 25%, but there are 2 "25%"s so 50% is the correct answer, but there is only one “50%” So there’s a 1 in 4 chance so the answer is 25%, but there are 2 "25%"s so 50% is the correct answer, but there is only one “50%” So there’s a 1 in 4 chance so the answer is 25%, but there are 2 "25%"s so 50% is the correct answer, but there is only one “50%” So there’s a 1 in 4 chance so the answer is 25%, but there are 2 "25%"s so 50% is the correct answer, but there is only one “50%” So there’s a 1 in 4 chance so the answer is 25%, but there are 2 "25%"s so 50% is the correct answer, but there is only one “50%” So there’s a 1 in 4 chance so the answer is 25%…
None of the answers are correct. If the answer were 25%, then it couldn’t be 25% because there’s a 50% chance of picking it at random, which contradicts our supposition. Similarly the answer cannot be 50% because there’s a 25% chance of picking it. The answer isn’t 60% because there isn’t a 60% chance of picking it.

Which is wrong, because you incorrectly assumed there was one correct answer
then what’s the answer and why
There’s a 1 in 4 chance so the answer is 25%, but there are 2 "25%"s so 50% is the correct answer, but there is only one “50%” So there’s a 1 in 4 chance so the answer is 25%, but there are 2 "25%"s so 50% is the correct answer, but there is only one “50%” So there’s a 1 in 4 chance so the answer is 25%, but there are 2 "25%"s so 50% is the correct answer, but there is only one “50%” So there’s a 1 in 4 chance so the answer is 25%, but there are 2 "25%"s so 50% is the correct answer, but there is only one “50%” So there’s a 1 in 4 chance so the answer is 25%, but there are 2 "25%"s so 50% is the correct answer, but there is only one “50%” So there’s a 1 in 4 chance so the answer is 25%, but there are 2 "25%"s so 50% is the correct answer, but there is only one “50%” So there’s a 1 in 4 chance so the answer is 25%, but there are 2 "25%"s so 50% is the correct answer, but there is only one “50%” So there’s a 1 in 4 chance so the answer is 25%, but there are 2 "25%"s so 50% is the correct answer, but there is only one “50%” So there’s a 1 in 4 chance so the answer is 25%, but there are 2 "25%"s so 50% is the correct answer, but there is only one “50%” So there’s a 1 in 4 chance so the answer is 25%…

flawless logic
That’s correct.
But it’s correct because 25 and 50 are there.
Also, prob-a-bil-i-ty.
You don’t know the answers when trying to determine it.
It’s not correct, and your knowledge of the answers has nothing to do with my explanation.
