Halfway Between 12 and 472

When you ask "What number is halfway between 12 and 472?" 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=472.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 12 and 472, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 12 and 472 into our formula, we get:

(12 + 472)/2 = 242

Thus, the number halfway between 12 and 472 is 242.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 12 from 242 and subtract 242 from 472 and compare the two numbers:

242 - 12 = 230
472 - 242 = 230

As you can see, the halfway number is 230 higher than 12 and 230 lower than 472. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 242 above is correct.
