If you don't know just say you don't know, you are not helping, why bash a person more?

The point is you have been taught this otherwise you wouldn't be asked the question, you will learn nothing by asking people who have studied this and work within the industry. We are not permitted to do your studies for you and as for not knowing the answer is very simple, I could guarantee myself and USAFRet have forgotten more about this subject than you have yet learnt!!!

I have read alot before posting here, I know that supported devices can support lacp, but the question is the unsupported devices. A simple yes or no will suffice.

I don't know if you had a hard time at work today, but thank you for your time nigelivey and tomshardware community.

The question is invalid for 2 reasons. First LACP is a sub part of the link aggregation protocol related automatic negotiation of which links are included in the group. It does not impact how data is selected for transmission. The second problem is round-robin is proprietary form of LAG and there is no answer since it is unlikely the switch support this proprietary method and when you have different method of LAG on either end the result can be unpredictable.

So when you understand why the above is true you will also be able to explain the multiple possible answers to this question.
