The midpoint of JK will be the points in between the x values and the y values.

There is an easy midpoint formula that goes as follows:

M= ((x1+x2)/2, (y1+y2)/2)

Now, we go 9+1 which is 10 and divide by 2 getting 5.

For the y values we do the same- 9+3 is 12 divided by 2 is 6.

The midpoint of JK is (5,6).
