Halfway Between 40 and 291

When you ask "What number is halfway between 40 and 291?" 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=291.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 40 and 291, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 40 and 291 into our formula, we get:

(40 + 291)/2 = 165.5

Thus, the number halfway between 40 and 291 is 165.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 40 from 165.5 and subtract 165.5 from 291 and compare the two numbers:

165.5 - 40 = 125.5
291 - 165.5 = 125.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 125.5 higher than 40 and 125.5 lower than 291. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 165.5 above is correct.
