Halfway Between 9 and 48

When you ask "What number is halfway between 9 and 48?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=9 and Y=48.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 9 and 48, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 9 and 48 into our formula, we get:

(9 + 48)/2 = 28.5

Thus, the number halfway between 9 and 48 is 28.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 9 from 28.5 and subtract 28.5 from 48 and compare the two numbers:

28.5 - 9 = 19.5
48 - 28.5 = 19.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 19.5 higher than 9 and 19.5 lower than 48. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 28.5 above is correct.
