Can't do math l0l
I'll add onto this post, but for now, here's some rambling.

Even if the choices were different (e.g. a) 10% b) 20% c) 30% d) 40%), it wouldn't change the question. Unless the correct answer is one of the choices, there's no way to pick the right answer from the given choices. In this case, assuming uniform distribution, the answers will be weighted with different probabilities. Because of this, the answer changes depending on the which choice you pick. I'm trying to think of a mathematical approach but nothing's coming up at the moment.

hint pls
