Halfway Between 49 and 280

When you ask "What number is halfway between 49 and 280?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=49 and Y=280.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 49 and 280, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 49 and 280 into our formula, we get:

(49 + 280)/2 = 164.5

Thus, the number halfway between 49 and 280 is 164.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 49 from 164.5 and subtract 164.5 from 280 and compare the two numbers:

164.5 - 49 = 115.5
280 - 164.5 = 115.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 115.5 higher than 49 and 115.5 lower than 280. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 164.5 above is correct.
