When you ask "What number is halfway between 33 and 72?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=33 and Y=72.
To find the number halfway between 33 and 72, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 33 and 72 into our formula, we get:
(33 + 72)/2 = 52.5
Thus, the number halfway between 33 and 72 is 52.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 33 from 52.5 and subtract 52.5 from 72 and compare the two numbers:
52.5 - 33 = 19.5
72 - 52.5 = 19.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 19.5 higher than 33 and 19.5 lower than 72. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 52.5 above is correct.
