Halfway Between 40 and 470

When you ask "What number is halfway between 40 and 470?" 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=470.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 40 and 470, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 40 and 470 into our formula, we get:

(40 + 470)/2 = 255

Thus, the number halfway between 40 and 470 is 255.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 40 from 255 and subtract 255 from 470 and compare the two numbers:

255 - 40 = 215
470 - 255 = 215

As you can see, the halfway number is 215 higher than 40 and 215 lower than 470. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 255 above is correct.
