Halfway Between 12 and 56

When you ask "What number is halfway between 12 and 56?" 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=56.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 12 and 56, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 12 and 56 into our formula, we get:

(12 + 56)/2 = 34

Thus, the number halfway between 12 and 56 is 34.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 12 from 34 and subtract 34 from 56 and compare the two numbers:

34 - 12 = 22
56 - 34 = 22

As you can see, the halfway number is 22 higher than 12 and 22 lower than 56. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 34 above is correct.
