  • So for someone who has a microwave that only works in minutes and actual seconds, meaning 59 is the highest my seconds can go, before the minute counter is increased. Do these microwaves just work in terms of 100 seconds? So if you input 10:00 it’s not actually 10 minutes but rather 1000 seconds, meaning it’s now 16:40 on a “correct” microwave?

    I suppose that depends on how pedantic you want to be, cause based on how I read it, you need to “solve” the real answer, which is “c) 0%“, due to the paradoxical situation and then figure out what the chance of picking that correct answer is, if you were to randomly chose one of the 4 options, so either of the 25% options should be correct to mark as a chosen answer and not chosen randomly.

    But yes, 25% is not equal to 0%, however English is a lovely language
