Halfway Between 40 and 473

When you ask "What number is halfway between 40 and 473?" 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=473.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 40 and 473, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 40 and 473 into our formula, we get:

(40 + 473)/2 = 256.5

Thus, the number halfway between 40 and 473 is 256.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 40 from 256.5 and subtract 256.5 from 473 and compare the two numbers:

256.5 - 40 = 216.5
473 - 256.5 = 216.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 216.5 higher than 40 and 216.5 lower than 473. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 256.5 above is correct.
