Halfway Between 36 and 61

When you ask "What number is halfway between 36 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=36 and Y=61.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 36 and 61, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 36 and 61 into our formula, we get:

(36 + 61)/2 = 48.5

Thus, the number halfway between 36 and 61 is 48.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 36 from 48.5 and subtract 48.5 from 61 and compare the two numbers:

48.5 - 36 = 12.5
61 - 48.5 = 12.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 12.5 higher than 36 and 12.5 lower than 61. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 48.5 above is correct.
