Halfway Between 16 and 89

When you ask "What number is halfway between 16 and 89?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=16 and Y=89.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 16 and 89, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 16 and 89 into our formula, we get:

(16 + 89)/2 = 52.5

Thus, the number halfway between 16 and 89 is 52.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 16 from 52.5 and subtract 52.5 from 89 and compare the two numbers:

52.5 - 16 = 36.5
89 - 52.5 = 36.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 36.5 higher than 16 and 36.5 lower than 89. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 52.5 above is correct.
