Halfway Between 40 and 485

When you ask "What number is halfway between 40 and 485?" 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=485.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 40 and 485, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 40 and 485 into our formula, we get:

(40 + 485)/2 = 262.5

Thus, the number halfway between 40 and 485 is 262.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 40 from 262.5 and subtract 262.5 from 485 and compare the two numbers:

262.5 - 40 = 222.5
485 - 262.5 = 222.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 222.5 higher than 40 and 222.5 lower than 485. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 262.5 above is correct.
