Halfway Between 40 and 495

When you ask "What number is halfway between 40 and 495?" 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=495.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 40 and 495, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 40 and 495 into our formula, we get:

(40 + 495)/2 = 267.5

Thus, the number halfway between 40 and 495 is 267.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 40 from 267.5 and subtract 267.5 from 495 and compare the two numbers:

267.5 - 40 = 227.5
495 - 267.5 = 227.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 227.5 higher than 40 and 227.5 lower than 495. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 267.5 above is correct.
