Halfway Between 8 and 12

When you ask "What number is halfway between 8 and 12?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=8 and Y=12.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 8 and 12, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 8 and 12 into our formula, we get:

(8 + 12)/2 = 10

Thus, the number halfway between 8 and 12 is 10.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 8 from 10 and subtract 10 from 12 and compare the two numbers:

10 - 8 = 2
12 - 10 = 2

As you can see, the halfway number is 2 higher than 8 and 2 lower than 12. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 10 above is correct.
