When you ask "What number is halfway between 4 and 556?" 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=556.

To find the number halfway between 4 and 556, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 4 and 556 into our formula, we get:
(4 + 556)/2 = 280
Thus, the number halfway between 4 and 556 is 280.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 4 from 280 and subtract 280 from 556 and compare the two numbers:
280 - 4 = 276
556 - 280 = 276
As you can see, the halfway number is 276 higher than 4 and 276 lower than 556. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 280 above is correct.
