Halfway Between 56 and 117

When you ask "What number is halfway between 56 and 117?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=56 and Y=117.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 56 and 117, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 56 and 117 into our formula, we get:

(56 + 117)/2 = 86.5

Thus, the number halfway between 56 and 117 is 86.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 56 from 86.5 and subtract 86.5 from 117 and compare the two numbers:

86.5 - 56 = 30.5
117 - 86.5 = 30.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 30.5 higher than 56 and 30.5 lower than 117. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 86.5 above is correct.
