    3/25

    Step-by-step explanation:

    A multiple choice test has 20 questions and each question has five possible answers, of which one is correct.

    Therefore, the probability of getting an answer right by guessing is:

    1/5

    The probability of getting 12 out of 20 correct is therefore the product of the probability of getting each question right and 12/20:

    1/5 * 12/20 = 3/25
