Step 3: Determine whether the number represents a male or female:
A number greater than or equal to 5 represents a male, while a number smaller than or equal to 4 represents a female.
The function in cell M7 attempts to extract the character representing the gender from the identity number. The function, however, currently returns more than one character.
Modify the function to correctly extract the character in step 1 and add steps 2 and 3 to the function to complete it, so that 'Male' or 'Female' is displayed in cell M7. (6)
