Difficulty: Easy
Correct Answer: J
Explanation:
Introduction / Context:Both reference letters are given by left indices. The midpoint letter is the one at the average of their positions.
Given Data / Assumptions:
Concept / Approach:Compute M and map to the letter.
Step-by-Step Solution:
M = (6 + 14)/2 = 10.The 10th letter is J.Verification / Alternative check:Sequence from F to N has 8 steps; 4 steps from either side lands on J.
Why Other Options Are Wrong:They sit one place to either side of the exact midpoint or outside the range.
Common Pitfalls:Using integer division incorrectly when the sum is odd; here it is even, so midpoint is exact.
Final Answer:J
