Halfway Between 20 and 498

When you ask "What number is halfway between 20 and 498?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=20 and Y=498.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 20 and 498, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 20 and 498 into our formula, we get:

(20 + 498)/2 = 259

Thus, the number halfway between 20 and 498 is 259.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 20 from 259 and subtract 259 from 498 and compare the two numbers:

259 - 20 = 239
498 - 259 = 239

As you can see, the halfway number is 239 higher than 20 and 239 lower than 498. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 259 above is correct.
