The following question is based on the following alphabet series.
A B C D E F G H I J K L M
N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
If the above alphabet are divided in two equal halves -- from A to M and N to Z, which letter in the later half would be corresponding to the letter J ?
Answer: B
Correct answer: w
The halves are A to M and N to Z, thirteen letters each, so a letter's position within its own half is what corresponds.
J is the 10th letter of the first half. The 10th letter of the second half is
\[ 13 + 10 = 23 \rightarrow W \]
Counting within the half rather than from A is the step the question is testing, and it works because the two halves are of equal length.
