Halfway Between 26 and 996

When you ask "What number is halfway between 26 and 996?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=26 and Y=996.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 26 and 996, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 26 and 996 into our formula, we get:

(26 + 996)/2 = 511

Thus, the number halfway between 26 and 996 is 511.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 26 from 511 and subtract 511 from 996 and compare the two numbers:

511 - 26 = 485
996 - 511 = 485

As you can see, the halfway number is 485 higher than 26 and 485 lower than 996. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 511 above is correct.
