When you ask "What number is halfway between 49 and 556?" 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=556.

To find the number halfway between 49 and 556, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 49 and 556 into our formula, we get:
(49 + 556)/2 = 302.5
Thus, the number halfway between 49 and 556 is 302.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 49 from 302.5 and subtract 302.5 from 556 and compare the two numbers:
302.5 - 49 = 253.5
556 - 302.5 = 253.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 253.5 higher than 49 and 253.5 lower than 556. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 302.5 above is correct.
