Halfway Between 12 and 494

When you ask "What number is halfway between 12 and 494?" 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=494.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 12 and 494, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 12 and 494 into our formula, we get:

(12 + 494)/2 = 253

Thus, the number halfway between 12 and 494 is 253.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 12 from 253 and subtract 253 from 494 and compare the two numbers:

253 - 12 = 241
494 - 253 = 241

As you can see, the halfway number is 241 higher than 12 and 241 lower than 494. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 253 above is correct.
