Halfway Between 48 and 587

When you ask "What number is halfway between 48 and 587?" 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=587.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 48 and 587, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 48 and 587 into our formula, we get:

(48 + 587)/2 = 317.5

Thus, the number halfway between 48 and 587 is 317.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 48 from 317.5 and subtract 317.5 from 587 and compare the two numbers:

317.5 - 48 = 269.5
587 - 317.5 = 269.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 269.5 higher than 48 and 269.5 lower than 587. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 317.5 above is correct.
