1. Add the x-coordinates of the two points
2. Divide by 2.
3. That answer will be the x-coordinate of the answer (it will be a fraction).
4. Add the y-coordinates of the two points
5. Divide by 2.
6. That answer will be the y-coordinate of the answer (it will be a whole number).

What is the answer?  (?,?)
