Halfway Between 40 and 471

When you ask "What number is halfway between 40 and 471?" 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=471.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 40 and 471, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 40 and 471 into our formula, we get:

(40 + 471)/2 = 255.5

Thus, the number halfway between 40 and 471 is 255.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 40 from 255.5 and subtract 255.5 from 471 and compare the two numbers:

255.5 - 40 = 215.5
471 - 255.5 = 215.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 215.5 higher than 40 and 215.5 lower than 471. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 255.5 above is correct.
