Halfway Between 42 and 900

When you ask "What number is halfway between 42 and 900?" 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=900.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 42 and 900, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 42 and 900 into our formula, we get:

(42 + 900)/2 = 471

Thus, the number halfway between 42 and 900 is 471.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 42 from 471 and subtract 471 from 900 and compare the two numbers:

471 - 42 = 429
900 - 471 = 429

As you can see, the halfway number is 429 higher than 42 and 429 lower than 900. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 471 above is correct.
