Halfway Between 47 and 492

When you ask "What number is halfway between 47 and 492?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=47 and Y=492.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 47 and 492, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 47 and 492 into our formula, we get:

(47 + 492)/2 = 269.5

Thus, the number halfway between 47 and 492 is 269.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 47 from 269.5 and subtract 269.5 from 492 and compare the two numbers:

269.5 - 47 = 222.5
492 - 269.5 = 222.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 222.5 higher than 47 and 222.5 lower than 492. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 269.5 above is correct.
