Answer: Use the jQuery :checked selector

You can simply use the jQuery :checked selector in combination with the val() method to find the value of the selected radio button inside a group.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>jQuery Get Selected Radio Button Value</title>
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.5.1.min.js"></script>
<script>
    $(document).ready(function(){
        $("input[type='button']").click(function(){
            var radioValue = $("input[name='gender']:checked").val();
            if(radioValue){
                alert("Your are a - " + radioValue);
            }
        });
    });
</script>
</head> 
<body>
    <h4>Please select your gender.</h4>
    <p> 
        <label><input type="radio" name="gender" value="male">Male</label> 
        <label><input type="radio" name="gender" value="female">Female</label>
    </p>
