Halfway Between 6 and 86

When you ask "What number is halfway between 6 and 86?" 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=86.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 6 and 86, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 6 and 86 into our formula, we get:

(6 + 86)/2 = 46

Thus, the number halfway between 6 and 86 is 46.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 6 from 46 and subtract 46 from 86 and compare the two numbers:

46 - 6 = 40
86 - 46 = 40

As you can see, the halfway number is 40 higher than 6 and 40 lower than 86. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 46 above is correct.
