Halfway Between 65 and 172

When you ask "What number is halfway between 65 and 172?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=65 and Y=172.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 65 and 172, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 65 and 172 into our formula, we get:

(65 + 172)/2 = 118.5

Thus, the number halfway between 65 and 172 is 118.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 65 from 118.5 and subtract 118.5 from 172 and compare the two numbers:

118.5 - 65 = 53.5
172 - 118.5 = 53.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 53.5 higher than 65 and 53.5 lower than 172. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 118.5 above is correct.
