Halfway Between 2 and 486

When you ask "What number is halfway between 2 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=2 and Y=486.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 2 and 486, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 2 and 486 into our formula, we get:

(2 + 486)/2 = 244

Thus, the number halfway between 2 and 486 is 244.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 2 from 244 and subtract 244 from 486 and compare the two numbers:

244 - 2 = 242
486 - 244 = 242

As you can see, the halfway number is 242 higher than 2 and 242 lower than 486. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 244 above is correct.
