📘 About the Midpoint

The midpoint is the value exactly halfway between two numbers on a number line.

The same arithmetic formula is also used for the midpoint of two coordinate values independently.

🧮 Formula

Midpoint
Midpoint = (a + b) ÷ 2
Distance
Distance = |b − a|

Where

  • a = first endpoint
  • b = second endpoint
The two inputs are treated as endpoints on a number line.
