When you ask "What number is halfway between 40 and 478?" 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=478.

To find the number halfway between 40 and 478, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 40 and 478 into our formula, we get:
(40 + 478)/2 = 259
Thus, the number halfway between 40 and 478 is 259.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 40 from 259 and subtract 259 from 478 and compare the two numbers:
259 - 40 = 219
478 - 259 = 219
As you can see, the halfway number is 219 higher than 40 and 219 lower than 478. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 259 above is correct.
