Instead, I will give you BETTER and MORE INTERESTING problem to solve.
If you don't know a precise solution, use your intuition.
Imagine that you are on the test.
The test consists of 20 questions, in all.
Of them, 10 questions are the multiple choice questions with 4 options in each question;
of these 4 options, only one is a correct answer in each question.
The other 10 questions are "Yes/No" questions.
You have a right to select, which of these two groups of questions to answer.
Any correct answer has the same score in each / (in both) of these two groups of questions.
You are EQUALLY NON-PREPARED to answer both groups of questions; so, you will choose an answer RANDOMLY to each question.
Which of these two group of questions will you select to maximize your scores ?
