When you ask "What number is halfway between 26 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=26 and Y=53.

To find the number halfway between 26 and 53, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 26 and 53 into our formula, we get:
(26 + 53)/2 = 39.5
Thus, the number halfway between 26 and 53 is 39.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 26 from 39.5 and subtract 39.5 from 53 and compare the two numbers:
39.5 - 26 = 13.5
53 - 39.5 = 13.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 13.5 higher than 26 and 13.5 lower than 53. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 39.5 above is correct.
