Halfway Between 6 and 271

When you ask "What number is halfway between 6 and 271?" 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=271.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 6 and 271, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 6 and 271 into our formula, we get:

(6 + 271)/2 = 138.5

Thus, the number halfway between 6 and 271 is 138.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 6 from 138.5 and subtract 138.5 from 271 and compare the two numbers:

138.5 - 6 = 132.5
271 - 138.5 = 132.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 132.5 higher than 6 and 132.5 lower than 271. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 138.5 above is correct.
