A blind chicken ...
There is a nice German saying
Ein blindes Huhn findet auch ein Korn. = A blind chicken will also find a seed. This means that if you stab around in the dark, you will sooner or later hit lucky, by accident. This is used often when somebody gets the right answer to a question by sheer chance. Is there an equivalent in Spanish?

Una posibilidad es que alguien dé con la solución "como el burro que tocó la flauta".
Viene de la fábula "El burro flautista", de Tomás de Iriarte.
