Answer:


\boxed{ \boxed{ \bold{ ( \: 2</strong><strong> </strong><strong>,</strong><strong> \: 4 \: )}}}

Explanation:

Given,

A ( 3 , 5 ) ⇒( x₁ , y₁ )

B ( 1 , 3 )⇒( x₂ , y₂ )

Let's find the midpoint of the line:


\sf{ ((x1 + x2)/(2) \: , (y1 + y2)/(2)) }

plug the values


\sf{( (3 + 1)/(2) \: , (5 + 3)/(2) )}

Add the numbers


\sf{( (4)/(2) \: , (8)/(2) )}

Calculate


\sf{(2 \:, 4 \: )}

Hope I helped!

Best regards!
