Halfway Between 6 and 9

When you ask "What number is halfway between 6 and 9?" 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=9.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 6 and 9, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 6 and 9 into our formula, we get:

(6 + 9)/2 = 7.5

Thus, the number halfway between 6 and 9 is 7.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 6 from 7.5 and subtract 7.5 from 9 and compare the two numbers:

7.5 - 6 = 1.5
9 - 7.5 = 1.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 1.5 higher than 6 and 1.5 lower than 9. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 7.5 above is correct.
