Solution

The correct option is A 0.25
$Since X_{1}, X_{2}, X_{3} and X_{4}$ are independent normal random variable with zero mean and unit variance then

$P (X_{4} is smallest) = P (X_{3} is smallest)$

$= P (X_{2} is smallest) = P (X_{1} is smallest) = P$

$P (X_{4} is smallest) = \frac{P}{4 P} = \frac{1}{4} = 0.25$
