Difficulty: Easy
Correct Answer: M
Explanation:
Introduction / Context:
We mix left and right indexing. Convert the right index to a left index, then take the midpoint of the two left indices.
Given Data / Assumptions:
Concept / Approach:
Midpoint index M = (20 + 6)/2 = 13; identify the 13th letter.
Step-by-Step Solution:
Verification / Alternative check:
Alphabet positions A1 … M13 … T20 show M equidistant from F(6) and T(20).
Why Other Options Are Wrong:
They are neighbors of the midpoint or beyond.
Common Pitfalls:
Failing to convert from right before averaging; that yields wrong values.
Final Answer:
M
