Halfway Between 71 and 73

When you ask "What number is halfway between 71 and 73?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=71 and Y=73.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 71 and 73, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 71 and 73 into our formula, we get:

(71 + 73)/2 = 72

Thus, the number halfway between 71 and 73 is 72.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 71 from 72 and subtract 72 from 73 and compare the two numbers:

72 - 71 = 1
73 - 72 = 1

As you can see, the halfway number is 1 higher than 71 and 1 lower than 73. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 72 above is correct.
