Halfway Between 6 and 55

When you ask "What number is halfway between 6 and 55?" 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=55.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 6 and 55, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 6 and 55 into our formula, we get:

(6 + 55)/2 = 30.5

Thus, the number halfway between 6 and 55 is 30.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 6 from 30.5 and subtract 30.5 from 55 and compare the two numbers:

30.5 - 6 = 24.5
55 - 30.5 = 24.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 24.5 higher than 6 and 24.5 lower than 55. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 30.5 above is correct.
