Halfway Between 42 and 406

When you ask "What number is halfway between 42 and 406?" 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=406.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 42 and 406, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 42 and 406 into our formula, we get:

(42 + 406)/2 = 224

Thus, the number halfway between 42 and 406 is 224.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 42 from 224 and subtract 224 from 406 and compare the two numbers:

224 - 42 = 182
406 - 224 = 182

As you can see, the halfway number is 182 higher than 42 and 182 lower than 406. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 224 above is correct.
