Halfway Between 45 and 494

When you ask "What number is halfway between 45 and 494?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=45 and Y=494.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 45 and 494, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 45 and 494 into our formula, we get:

(45 + 494)/2 = 269.5

Thus, the number halfway between 45 and 494 is 269.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 45 from 269.5 and subtract 269.5 from 494 and compare the two numbers:

269.5 - 45 = 224.5
494 - 269.5 = 224.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 224.5 higher than 45 and 224.5 lower than 494. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 269.5 above is correct.
