Halfway Between 42 and 396

When you ask "What number is halfway between 42 and 396?" 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=396.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 42 and 396, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 42 and 396 into our formula, we get:

(42 + 396)/2 = 219

Thus, the number halfway between 42 and 396 is 219.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 42 from 219 and subtract 219 from 396 and compare the two numbers:

219 - 42 = 177
396 - 219 = 177

As you can see, the halfway number is 177 higher than 42 and 177 lower than 396. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 219 above is correct.
