Halfway Between 48 and 509

When you ask "What number is halfway between 48 and 509?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=48 and Y=509.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 48 and 509, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 48 and 509 into our formula, we get:

(48 + 509)/2 = 278.5

Thus, the number halfway between 48 and 509 is 278.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 48 from 278.5 and subtract 278.5 from 509 and compare the two numbers:

278.5 - 48 = 230.5
509 - 278.5 = 230.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 230.5 higher than 48 and 230.5 lower than 509. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 278.5 above is correct.
