In order to find the coordinates of the halfway point, we use the midpoint formula. 

By first finding the x coordinate by adding the two given values and dividing them by 2, (39+41)/2 = 40

And then next is to find the y coordinate by getting the sum of the two coordinates and getting their average just like the first step: (120+84)/2 = 102

The final answer is (40N, 102W).
