Halfway Between 2 and 53

When you ask "What number is halfway between 2 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=2 and Y=53.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 2 and 53, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 2 and 53 into our formula, we get:

(2 + 53)/2 = 27.5

Thus, the number halfway between 2 and 53 is 27.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 2 from 27.5 and subtract 27.5 from 53 and compare the two numbers:

27.5 - 2 = 25.5
53 - 27.5 = 25.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 25.5 higher than 2 and 25.5 lower than 53. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 27.5 above is correct.
