Halfway Between 59 and 85

When you ask "What number is halfway between 59 and 85?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=59 and Y=85.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 59 and 85, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 59 and 85 into our formula, we get:

(59 + 85)/2 = 72

Thus, the number halfway between 59 and 85 is 72.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 59 from 72 and subtract 72 from 85 and compare the two numbers:

72 - 59 = 13
85 - 72 = 13

As you can see, the halfway number is 13 higher than 59 and 13 lower than 85. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 72 above is correct.
