Answer:
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.
Step-by-step explanation:
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.
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 deduct 8 from 10 and deduct 10 from 12 and compare the two numbers:
10 - 8 = 12 - 10 = same = 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.
