Halfway Between 8 and 15

When you ask "What number is halfway between 8 and 15?" 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=15.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 8 and 15, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 8 and 15 into our formula, we get:

(8 + 15)/2 = 11.5

Thus, the number halfway between 8 and 15 is 11.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 8 from 11.5 and subtract 11.5 from 15 and compare the two numbers:

11.5 - 8 = 3.5
15 - 11.5 = 3.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 3.5 higher than 8 and 3.5 lower than 15. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 11.5 above is correct.
