Halfway Between 40 and 585

When you ask "What number is halfway between 40 and 585?" 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=585.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 40 and 585, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 40 and 585 into our formula, we get:

(40 + 585)/2 = 312.5

Thus, the number halfway between 40 and 585 is 312.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 40 from 312.5 and subtract 312.5 from 585 and compare the two numbers:

312.5 - 40 = 272.5
585 - 312.5 = 272.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 272.5 higher than 40 and 272.5 lower than 585. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 312.5 above is correct.
