When you ask "What number is halfway between 12 and 53?" 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=53.
To find the number halfway between 12 and 53, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 12 and 53 into our formula, we get:
(12 + 53)/2 = 32.5
Thus, the number halfway between 12 and 53 is 32.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 12 from 32.5 and subtract 32.5 from 53 and compare the two numbers:
32.5 - 12 = 20.5
53 - 32.5 = 20.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 20.5 higher than 12 and 20.5 lower than 53. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 32.5 above is correct.
