Some sticks have the length from 1/4 to 7/8 inch, inclusive, and from the shortest to the longest, the length increased by 1/16 inch. What is the median of these lengths? (All the sticks should different.)

Sticks are of length
4/16(=1/4),
4/16 + 1/16 = 5/16
5/16 + 1/16 = 6/16,
7/16,
8/16,
9/16,
10/16,
11/16,
12/16,
13/16,
14/16(=7/8).
Since all sticks are different and the number of terms = 11, the median of these lengths is the 6th term [spoiler]9/16[/spoiler]
I seem to misunderstand the question. could you please explain me in detail?
