Answer:

M(-1/2, -1/2, 1/2)

Explanation:

To find the midpoint of a line segment, average the coordinates of the end points.

M = (A +B)/2

__

M = (V +W)/2

M = ((3, 7, -6) +(-4, -8, 7))/2 = (3-4, 7-8, -6+7)/2 = (-1, -1, 1)/2

M = (-1/2, -1/2, 1/2)

The midpoint between V and W is M(-1/2, -1/2, 1/2).
