Halfway Between 42 and 958

When you ask "What number is halfway between 42 and 958?" 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=958.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 42 and 958, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 42 and 958 into our formula, we get:

(42 + 958)/2 = 500

Thus, the number halfway between 42 and 958 is 500.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 42 from 500 and subtract 500 from 958 and compare the two numbers:

500 - 42 = 458
958 - 500 = 458

As you can see, the halfway number is 458 higher than 42 and 458 lower than 958. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 500 above is correct.
