Halfway Between 40 and 540

When you ask "What number is halfway between 40 and 540?" 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=540.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 40 and 540, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 40 and 540 into our formula, we get:

(40 + 540)/2 = 290

Thus, the number halfway between 40 and 540 is 290.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 40 from 290 and subtract 290 from 540 and compare the two numbers:

290 - 40 = 250
540 - 290 = 250

As you can see, the halfway number is 250 higher than 40 and 250 lower than 540. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 290 above is correct.
