Suppose you have two test grades in math and two test grades in history class. How do you get the average of the grades? Answer: You add the math grades together and divide by 2. Then you add the history grades together and divide by 2.

In the same way, when you have two points, each with x and y coordinates, you add the x coordinates and divide by 2, then you add the y coordinates, and divide by 2.

This is the formula for midpoint of (, )
and ( ,):

X coordinate of mid point:
Y coordinate of mid point:
