Halfway Between 40 and 179

When you ask "What number is halfway between 40 and 179?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=40 and Y=179.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 40 and 179, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 40 and 179 into our formula, we get:

(40 + 179)/2 = 109.5

Thus, the number halfway between 40 and 179 is 109.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 40 from 109.5 and subtract 109.5 from 179 and compare the two numbers:

109.5 - 40 = 69.5
179 - 109.5 = 69.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 69.5 higher than 40 and 69.5 lower than 179. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 109.5 above is correct.
