Halfway Between 2 and 56

When you ask "What number is halfway between 2 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=2 and Y=56.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 2 and 56, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 2 and 56 into our formula, we get:

(2 + 56)/2 = 29

Thus, the number halfway between 2 and 56 is 29.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 2 from 29 and subtract 29 from 56 and compare the two numbers:

29 - 2 = 27
56 - 29 = 27

As you can see, the halfway number is 27 higher than 2 and 27 lower than 56. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 29 above is correct.
