When you ask "What number is halfway between 12 and 42?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=12 and Y=42.

To find the number halfway between 12 and 42, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 12 and 42 into our formula, we get:
(12 + 42)/2 = 27
Thus, the number halfway between 12 and 42 is 27.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 12 from 27 and subtract 27 from 42 and compare the two numbers:
27 - 12 = 15
42 - 27 = 15
As you can see, the halfway number is 15 higher than 12 and 15 lower than 42. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 27 above is correct.
