Halfway Between 17 and 495

When you ask "What number is halfway between 17 and 495?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=17 and Y=495.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 17 and 495, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 17 and 495 into our formula, we get:

(17 + 495)/2 = 256

Thus, the number halfway between 17 and 495 is 256.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 17 from 256 and subtract 256 from 495 and compare the two numbers:

256 - 17 = 239
495 - 256 = 239

As you can see, the halfway number is 239 higher than 17 and 239 lower than 495. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 256 above is correct.
