Halfway Between 24 and 55

When you ask "What number is halfway between 24 and 55?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=24 and Y=55.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 24 and 55, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 24 and 55 into our formula, we get:

(24 + 55)/2 = 39.5

Thus, the number halfway between 24 and 55 is 39.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 24 from 39.5 and subtract 39.5 from 55 and compare the two numbers:

39.5 - 24 = 15.5
55 - 39.5 = 15.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 15.5 higher than 24 and 15.5 lower than 55. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 39.5 above is correct.
