Halfway Between 42 and 300

When you ask "What number is halfway between 42 and 300?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=42 and Y=300.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 42 and 300, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 42 and 300 into our formula, we get:

(42 + 300)/2 = 171

Thus, the number halfway between 42 and 300 is 171.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 42 from 171 and subtract 171 from 300 and compare the two numbers:

171 - 42 = 129
300 - 171 = 129

As you can see, the halfway number is 129 higher than 42 and 129 lower than 300. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 171 above is correct.
