Alphabet Test — “Which letter will be midway between the 6th letter from the left and the 14th letter from the left in the English alphabet?” (Positions: 6 → F; 14 → N; midpoint = ?)

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:

  • L=6 → F; L=14 → N.
  • Midpoint index M = (6 + 14)/2.


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
