Halfway Between 16 and 500

When you ask "What number is halfway between 16 and 500?" 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=500.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 16 and 500, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 16 and 500 into our formula, we get:

(16 + 500)/2 = 258

Thus, the number halfway between 16 and 500 is 258.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 16 from 258 and subtract 258 from 500 and compare the two numbers:

258 - 16 = 242
500 - 258 = 242

As you can see, the halfway number is 242 higher than 16 and 242 lower than 500. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 258 above is correct.
