Halfway Between 5 and 479

When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 479?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=5 and Y=479.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 5 and 479, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 5 and 479 into our formula, we get:

(5 + 479)/2 = 242

Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 479 is 242.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 242 and subtract 242 from 479 and compare the two numbers:

242 - 5 = 237
479 - 242 = 237

As you can see, the halfway number is 237 higher than 5 and 237 lower than 479. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 242 above is correct.
