Points P(a,b) and Q(c,d) have a mid point R:-
R( (a+c) / 2 , (b + d) / 2 )
Example
Find mid point, M, of (2 , 4) and (6 ,12)
M ( 8 / 2 , 16 / 2)
M (4 , 8) is required point.

Midpoint = ( (x' + x")/2 , (y' + y")/2 )
That's the formula. You take the addition of Xs and divide by 2, find the addition of Ys and divide them by 2 too and you'll get the coordinates.
Yay.

this is an integral formula in Calculus
Given a function f(x0 defined on the interval [a,b],
the integral of f(x)dx from a to b
= f(c)(b - a)
for some point c in between a & b.
an approximation is to take c = (a+b)/2, the mid-point

Average the x and the y coordinates.
Midpoint = [(first x + second x)/2, (first y + second y)/2]
