Answer: 97/112

================================================

How to get this answer:

Midpoint formula: (A+B)/2 = C

A and B are the endpoints with C as the midpoint

A = 7/8

B = 6/7

A+B = 7/8 + 6/7

A+B = 49/56 + 48/56

A+B = (49+48)/56

A+B = 97/56

(A+B)/2 = (97/56) divided by 2

(A+B)/2 = (97/56) times (1/2)

(A+B)/2 = (97*1)/(56*2)

(A+B)/2 = 97/112
