Answer:

(4,5)

Explanation:

When you look at the two coordinates, you can see that the values are 4 units apart for both. So, by looking at the middle of 6 and 2, we can determine the x coordinate of the midpoint is 4.

To solve for the y, we can find the middle of 3 and 7, which is 5, so the y is 5.

That makes the coordinate (4,5)
