When you ask "What number is halfway between 12 and 479?" 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=479.

To find the number halfway between 12 and 479, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 12 and 479 into our formula, we get:
(12 + 479)/2 = 245.5
Thus, the number halfway between 12 and 479 is 245.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 12 from 245.5 and subtract 245.5 from 479 and compare the two numbers:
245.5 - 12 = 233.5
479 - 245.5 = 233.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 233.5 higher than 12 and 233.5 lower than 479. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 245.5 above is correct.
