\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{middle point of 2 points } \\\\ Q(\stackrel{x_1}{0.3}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{1.8})\qquad R(\stackrel{x_2}{2.7}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{3.9}) \qquad \left(\cfrac{ x_2 + x_1}{2}~~~ ,~~~ \cfrac{ y_2 + y_1}{2} \right) \\\\\\ \left( \cfrac{2.7+0.3}{2}~~,~~\cfrac{3.9+1.8}{2} \right)\implies \left(\cfrac{3}{2}~,~\cfrac{5.7}{2} \right)\implies (1.5~,~2.85)
