Halfway Between 1 and 288

When you ask "What number is halfway between 1 and 288?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=1 and Y=288.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 1 and 288, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 1 and 288 into our formula, we get:

(1 + 288)/2 = 144.5

Thus, the number halfway between 1 and 288 is 144.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 1 from 144.5 and subtract 144.5 from 288 and compare the two numbers:

144.5 - 1 = 143.5
288 - 144.5 = 143.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 143.5 higher than 1 and 143.5 lower than 288. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 144.5 above is correct.
