Halfway Between 6 and 78

When you ask "What number is halfway between 6 and 78?" 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=78.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 6 and 78, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 6 and 78 into our formula, we get:

(6 + 78)/2 = 42

Thus, the number halfway between 6 and 78 is 42.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 6 from 42 and subtract 42 from 78 and compare the two numbers:

42 - 6 = 36
78 - 42 = 36

As you can see, the halfway number is 36 higher than 6 and 36 lower than 78. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 42 above is correct.
