Halfway Between 24 and 998

When you ask "What number is halfway between 24 and 998?" 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=998.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 24 and 998, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 24 and 998 into our formula, we get:

(24 + 998)/2 = 511

Thus, the number halfway between 24 and 998 is 511.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 24 from 511 and subtract 511 from 998 and compare the two numbers:

511 - 24 = 487
998 - 511 = 487

As you can see, the halfway number is 487 higher than 24 and 487 lower than 998. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 511 above is correct.
