Halfway Between 8 and 171

When you ask "What number is halfway between 8 and 171?" 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=171.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 8 and 171, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 8 and 171 into our formula, we get:

(8 + 171)/2 = 89.5

Thus, the number halfway between 8 and 171 is 89.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 8 from 89.5 and subtract 89.5 from 171 and compare the two numbers:

89.5 - 8 = 81.5
171 - 89.5 = 81.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 81.5 higher than 8 and 81.5 lower than 171. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 89.5 above is correct.
