A million grains of sand is a heap. If we remove one grain of sand from this heap, we will still have a heap.
We can now keep repeating (2) until we only have a single grain of sand remaining.
Is this a heap? Clearly not. But what went wrong with our thinking?
This is called the Sorites paradox (soros being Greek for "heap") and is a classic paradox that has no real answer.
Both (1) and (2) are true, and we can indeed keep removing one grain of sand until we have a single grain remaining. If we remove one more grain, we're left with nothing, is this still a heap?
Hint
Look at the letter positions in the alphabet.
Answer
R.
If you take the alphabetic positions of each letter in a row, the total is always 56.
Double-Checking
Y + G + W + A = 25 + 7 + 23 + 1 = 56
K + L + R + O = 11 + 12 + 18 + 15 = 56
Z + J + P + D = 26 + 10 + 16 + 4 = 56
V + F + T + H = 22 + 6 + 20 + 8 = 56
