Halfway Between 42 and 316

When you ask "What number is halfway between 42 and 316?" 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=316.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 42 and 316, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 42 and 316 into our formula, we get:

(42 + 316)/2 = 179

Thus, the number halfway between 42 and 316 is 179.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 42 from 179 and subtract 179 from 316 and compare the two numbers:

179 - 42 = 137
316 - 179 = 137

As you can see, the halfway number is 137 higher than 42 and 137 lower than 316. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 179 above is correct.
