Halfway Between 1 and 80

When you ask "What number is halfway between 1 and 80?" 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=80.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 1 and 80, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 1 and 80 into our formula, we get:

(1 + 80)/2 = 40.5

Thus, the number halfway between 1 and 80 is 40.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 1 from 40.5 and subtract 40.5 from 80 and compare the two numbers:

40.5 - 1 = 39.5
80 - 40.5 = 39.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 39.5 higher than 1 and 39.5 lower than 80. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 40.5 above is correct.
