When you ask "What number is halfway between 4 and 872?" 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=872.

To find the number halfway between 4 and 872, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 4 and 872 into our formula, we get:
(4 + 872)/2 = 438
Thus, the number halfway between 4 and 872 is 438.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 4 from 438 and subtract 438 from 872 and compare the two numbers:
438 - 4 = 434
872 - 438 = 434
As you can see, the halfway number is 434 higher than 4 and 434 lower than 872. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 438 above is correct.
