Please tell me there is no correct answer, cause I'm having a Calvin moment here...

To be clear I'm stuck in this double loop: the correct answer would be 25%, but since 25% is presented twice, the correct answer is 50%, but 50% is presented only once, which means you have a 25% chance of correctly choosing it. So since you're stuck in this contradictory loop, the correct answer would be 0%, since neither 50% or 25% are correct, but 0% is also presented as a possible answer, giving you a 25% chance of guessing it, which puts you right back at the start of the loop.
There are functionally 3 potential answers so the correct answer is 33%. I thought that was the joke

I don't think there's any right answer

- if you chose 25%, there's two 25%s so that becomes 50% and it's the wrong answer
- if you chose 50%, well that's 1/4th so that can't be right
- if you chose 0%, you're stating that the question is impossible to answer, and thus any answer you give is the wrong answer.

No you're thinking of it wrongly

The question is what's you chance of randomly picking the right ANSWER. There are only 3 answers so 1/3.

If the question was what's your chance of picking the right ANSWER if you randomly pick 1 of the 4 SQUARES, then your solution space is a 1/2 chance of picking one and two 1/4 chance of picking one of three potential correct answers, which is a complicated solution but more than 25%.

The trick is the squares aren't the solution space, just a confusing way of displaying the solution space.
