Halfway Between 2 and 61

When you ask "What number is halfway between 2 and 61?" 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=61.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 2 and 61, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 2 and 61 into our formula, we get:

(2 + 61)/2 = 31.5

Thus, the number halfway between 2 and 61 is 31.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 2 from 31.5 and subtract 31.5 from 61 and compare the two numbers:

31.5 - 2 = 29.5
61 - 31.5 = 29.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 29.5 higher than 2 and 29.5 lower than 61. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 31.5 above is correct.
