Halfway Between 40 and 197

When you ask "What number is halfway between 40 and 197?" 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=197.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 40 and 197, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 40 and 197 into our formula, we get:

(40 + 197)/2 = 118.5

Thus, the number halfway between 40 and 197 is 118.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 40 from 118.5 and subtract 118.5 from 197 and compare the two numbers:

118.5 - 40 = 78.5
197 - 118.5 = 78.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 78.5 higher than 40 and 78.5 lower than 197. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 118.5 above is correct.
