"... then in the long run half of the time you will hit on the right answer"

So the right answer would be B, but you only have 25% chance of choosing that ... infinite loop.

If the correct answer is 50% then there needs to be 2 possible answers of 50%, otherwise picking randomly will only result in that answer being selected 25% of the time, rendering the "correct" answer false.
