Halfway Between 16 and 486

When you ask "What number is halfway between 16 and 486?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=16 and Y=486.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 16 and 486, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 16 and 486 into our formula, we get:

(16 + 486)/2 = 251

Thus, the number halfway between 16 and 486 is 251.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 16 from 251 and subtract 251 from 486 and compare the two numbers:

251 - 16 = 235
486 - 251 = 235

As you can see, the halfway number is 235 higher than 16 and 235 lower than 486. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 251 above is correct.
