Halfway Between 24 and 486

When you ask "What number is halfway between 24 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=24 and Y=486.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 24 and 486, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 24 and 486 into our formula, we get:

(24 + 486)/2 = 255

Thus, the number halfway between 24 and 486 is 255.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 24 from 255 and subtract 255 from 486 and compare the two numbers:

255 - 24 = 231
486 - 255 = 231

As you can see, the halfway number is 231 higher than 24 and 231 lower than 486. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 255 above is correct.
