Answer:

b. 2.5 questions

Step-by-step explanation:

If we consider one question:

Total number of choices: 4

Total number of correct choices: 2

Then the probability of randomly guessing one question correct is:

[tex]\frac{2}{4}[/tex]

Therefore, expected number of correct answer in one question is               [tex]\frac{2}{4}=0.5[/tex]

As a Result, expected number of correct answers of 5 questions is =5×0.5=2.5
