Halfway Between 12 and 280

When you ask "What number is halfway between 12 and 280?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=12 and Y=280.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 12 and 280, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 12 and 280 into our formula, we get:

(12 + 280)/2 = 146

Thus, the number halfway between 12 and 280 is 146.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 12 from 146 and subtract 146 from 280 and compare the two numbers:

146 - 12 = 134
280 - 146 = 134

As you can see, the halfway number is 134 higher than 12 and 134 lower than 280. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 146 above is correct.
