Halfway Between 12 and 59

When you ask "What number is halfway between 12 and 59?" 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=59.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 12 and 59, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 12 and 59 into our formula, we get:

(12 + 59)/2 = 35.5

Thus, the number halfway between 12 and 59 is 35.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 12 from 35.5 and subtract 35.5 from 59 and compare the two numbers:

35.5 - 12 = 23.5
59 - 35.5 = 23.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 23.5 higher than 12 and 23.5 lower than 59. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 35.5 above is correct.
