Hilarious but absolutely terrible too.

What idiot thought that would be a good idea?
No fun allowed warning:
The kid doesn't cry when he meets Karpov and they have a very friendly game. After the game (which, shockingly a 3 year old didn't win) they put up some chess exercises on the big screen and the kid clears them in a breeze. It's pretty wholesome.

Also Karpow offered a draw a couple of times. The kid declined every single time and simply ran out of time in the end.

None of the above; there are 3 unique responses. Selecting one at random would mean that one of the answers would need to be 33%.
While I agree with you in context that there are only 3 real answers. Technically speaking there are still 4 choices. In the case, 2 of them are correct in that it's a 25% chance to select 50%. So if you went purely from guess at random you'd have 2/4.

So there's no right answer. So 0%. B

Trick Question. Answer is 100%

Right, so 50%. C
Right, but the chance of guessing it and random is 25% lol
There is no possible answer. Every single answer is wrong. It's a paradox with no sensible solution.

Explanation:

Multiple-choice question about the probability of a random answer to itself being correct

I found this math "problem" on the internet, and I'm wondering if it has an answer: Question: If you choose an answer to this question at random, what is the probability that you will be correct...
