When you ask "What number is halfway between 6 and 71?" 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=71.
To find the number halfway between 6 and 71, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 6 and 71 into our formula, we get:
(6 + 71)/2 = 38.5
Thus, the number halfway between 6 and 71 is 38.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 6 from 38.5 and subtract 38.5 from 71 and compare the two numbers:
38.5 - 6 = 32.5
71 - 38.5 = 32.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 32.5 higher than 6 and 32.5 lower than 71. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 38.5 above is correct.
