When you ask "What number is halfway between 12 and 492?" 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=492.

To find the number halfway between 12 and 492, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 12 and 492 into our formula, we get:
(12 + 492)/2 = 252
Thus, the number halfway between 12 and 492 is 252.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 12 from 252 and subtract 252 from 492 and compare the two numbers:
252 - 12 = 240
492 - 252 = 240
As you can see, the halfway number is 240 higher than 12 and 240 lower than 492. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 252 above is correct.
