Halfway Between 1 and 296

When you ask "What number is halfway between 1 and 296?" 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=296.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 1 and 296, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 1 and 296 into our formula, we get:

(1 + 296)/2 = 148.5

Thus, the number halfway between 1 and 296 is 148.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 1 from 148.5 and subtract 148.5 from 296 and compare the two numbers:

148.5 - 1 = 147.5
296 - 148.5 = 147.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 147.5 higher than 1 and 147.5 lower than 296. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 148.5 above is correct.
