This is a paradox, and I don't think there is a correct answer, at least not as a letter choice. The correct answer is to explain the paradox.
You can rationalize your way to exclude all but a last answer, there by making it the right answer.
Like, seeing as there are two 25% options, so there aren't four different answers, which means there isn't a 25% chance. This lead to there only being two options left 50% or 60%. This would seem to make 50% the right answer, but it's not, because you know the options, so it's not random, which in turn means you're not guessing. So you have more that 50% chance of choosing the right answer. So 60% is the closest to a right answer, by bullshitting and gaslighting yourself into thinking you solved question.
Having been to school I know a teacher did not read this question so tge answer is probably A, B, C, or D. Chosen randomly of course. But you will get credit for 3/4 answers as long as you take the time to talk to the teacher during office hours.
