Halfway Between 6 and 972

When you ask "What number is halfway between 6 and 972?" 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=972.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 6 and 972, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 6 and 972 into our formula, we get:

(6 + 972)/2 = 489

Thus, the number halfway between 6 and 972 is 489.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 6 from 489 and subtract 489 from 972 and compare the two numbers:

489 - 6 = 483
972 - 489 = 483

As you can see, the halfway number is 483 higher than 6 and 483 lower than 972. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 489 above is correct.
