Halfway Between 26 and 171

When you ask "What number is halfway between 26 and 171?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=26 and Y=171.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 26 and 171, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 26 and 171 into our formula, we get:

(26 + 171)/2 = 98.5

Thus, the number halfway between 26 and 171 is 98.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 26 from 98.5 and subtract 98.5 from 171 and compare the two numbers:

98.5 - 26 = 72.5
171 - 98.5 = 72.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 72.5 higher than 26 and 72.5 lower than 171. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 98.5 above is correct.
