Halfway Between 1 and 7

When you ask "What number is halfway between 1 and 7?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=1 and Y=7.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 1 and 7, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 1 and 7 into our formula, we get:

(1 + 7)/2 = 4

Thus, the number halfway between 1 and 7 is 4.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 1 from 4 and subtract 4 from 7 and compare the two numbers:

4 - 1 = 3
7 - 4 = 3

As you can see, the halfway number is 3 higher than 1 and 3 lower than 7. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 4 above is correct.
