Halfway Between 40 and 459

When you ask "What number is halfway between 40 and 459?" 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=459.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 40 and 459, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 40 and 459 into our formula, we get:

(40 + 459)/2 = 249.5

Thus, the number halfway between 40 and 459 is 249.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 40 from 249.5 and subtract 249.5 from 459 and compare the two numbers:

249.5 - 40 = 209.5
459 - 249.5 = 209.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 209.5 higher than 40 and 209.5 lower than 459. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 249.5 above is correct.
