Halfway Between 40 and 480

When you ask "What number is halfway between 40 and 480?" 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=480.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 40 and 480, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 40 and 480 into our formula, we get:

(40 + 480)/2 = 260

Thus, the number halfway between 40 and 480 is 260.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 40 from 260 and subtract 260 from 480 and compare the two numbers:

260 - 40 = 220
480 - 260 = 220

As you can see, the halfway number is 220 higher than 40 and 220 lower than 480. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 260 above is correct.
