When you ask "What number is halfway between 2 and 479?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=2 and Y=479.

To find the number halfway between 2 and 479, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 2 and 479 into our formula, we get:
(2 + 479)/2 = 240.5
Thus, the number halfway between 2 and 479 is 240.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 2 from 240.5 and subtract 240.5 from 479 and compare the two numbers:
240.5 - 2 = 238.5
479 - 240.5 = 238.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 238.5 higher than 2 and 238.5 lower than 479. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 240.5 above is correct.
