Halfway Between 6 and 21

When you ask "What number is halfway between 6 and 21?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=6 and Y=21.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 6 and 21, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 6 and 21 into our formula, we get:

(6 + 21)/2 = 13.5

Thus, the number halfway between 6 and 21 is 13.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 6 from 13.5 and subtract 13.5 from 21 and compare the two numbers:

13.5 - 6 = 7.5
21 - 13.5 = 7.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 7.5 higher than 6 and 7.5 lower than 21. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 13.5 above is correct.
