Answer the question about the Law of Large Numbers.

John decides to play the state lotto, which requires the purchaser to select six numbers between 1 and 50.
He selects 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4 for his numbers, believing that these are just as likely as any other series of six numbers between 1 and 50. He also notes that these numbers have not yet been selected as winning numbers. What can we accurately say about John's choice of numbers?
a. It is a reasonable choice.
b. It is an unreasonable choice, since a series of six 4s is very unlikely.
c. It is a reasonable choice, because these numbers are due to be picked.
d. It is a unreasonable choice, because these numbers have never been picked before.
