I'm not that smart but look online at a map and divide 12 hours 30 mins on each answer and see which one matches idk .

the Tropic of Cancer (approx. 23.5º N lat.) is where the sun is directly overhead on the 1st day of summer

this is about the latitude of Hong Kong , which has 13.5 hrs of daylight

above the Arctic Circle (66.5º N lat) , the Sun doesn't set

so, something south of the Tropic of Cancer

I was having the same issue with this question as I kept getting 12 degrees N, so for anyone now who has this question it is "20 degrees N". Hope that helps for anyone with the same question.
