Halfway Between 3 and 480

When you ask "What number is halfway between 3 and 480?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=3 and Y=480.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 3 and 480, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 3 and 480 into our formula, we get:

(3 + 480)/2 = 241.5

Thus, the number halfway between 3 and 480 is 241.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 3 from 241.5 and subtract 241.5 from 480 and compare the two numbers:

241.5 - 3 = 238.5
480 - 241.5 = 238.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 238.5 higher than 3 and 238.5 lower than 480. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 241.5 above is correct.
