Halfway Between 4 and 491

When you ask "What number is halfway between 4 and 491?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=4 and Y=491.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 4 and 491, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 4 and 491 into our formula, we get:

(4 + 491)/2 = 247.5

Thus, the number halfway between 4 and 491 is 247.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 4 from 247.5 and subtract 247.5 from 491 and compare the two numbers:

247.5 - 4 = 243.5
491 - 247.5 = 243.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 243.5 higher than 4 and 243.5 lower than 491. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 247.5 above is correct.
