    I only voted for 50% because Bacon was not an available option.

    My odds of randomly selecting Bacon would approach 100%.

    Actually math is simple once you see it. All engineering professions use the same basic equations you just call the item something else. You have to see it and once you do, it's simple.

    I believe many math teachers make it much harder than it really is. There are only a handful of equations you need to know, everthing else you just expand the basic equation which also is simple once you see it. People call this Calculus and Differential Equations. Heck, the names themselves can scare the heck out of people.

    If you have a Yes No selection, your odds are 50% you will get it right.

    All you need to know is how to add numbers.

    Subtraction tells you how many negative numbers you have to add to get your sum.

    Division tells you how many of the number you have to add to get the other number.

    Multiplication is how many numbers you have to add to get the result.

    It's all addition folks.

    Do you know who discovered the Zero value?

    Math is fun.....so have fun.

    Stay safe,

    Your fallacy is assuming that there are only three choices. There are four choices: 25, 50, 60, and 25. If you randomly select from four choices, you cannot then pretend one of them is simply a duplicate and discount it.
    stop asking for peoples opinion and then yelling at them for giving it:D

    I must admit, I picked %25, but only because I saw that first, saw that there were four choices, and didn't bother to read the other three. Tricky damn sharks!
