Halfway Between 7 and 10

When you ask "What number is halfway between 7 and 10?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=7 and Y=10.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 7 and 10, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 7 and 10 into our formula, we get:

(7 + 10)/2 = 8.5

Thus, the number halfway between 7 and 10 is 8.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 7 from 8.5 and subtract 8.5 from 10 and compare the two numbers:

8.5 - 7 = 1.5
10 - 8.5 = 1.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 1.5 higher than 7 and 1.5 lower than 10. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 8.5 above is correct.
