Halfway Between 1 and 79

When you ask "What number is halfway between 1 and 79?" 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=79.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 1 and 79, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 1 and 79 into our formula, we get:

(1 + 79)/2 = 40

Thus, the number halfway between 1 and 79 is 40.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 1 from 40 and subtract 40 from 79 and compare the two numbers:

40 - 1 = 39
79 - 40 = 39

As you can see, the halfway number is 39 higher than 1 and 39 lower than 79. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 40 above is correct.
