Halfway Between 50 and 490

When you ask "What number is halfway between 50 and 490?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=50 and Y=490.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 50 and 490, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 50 and 490 into our formula, we get:

(50 + 490)/2 = 270

Thus, the number halfway between 50 and 490 is 270.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 50 from 270 and subtract 270 from 490 and compare the two numbers:

270 - 50 = 220
490 - 270 = 220

As you can see, the halfway number is 220 higher than 50 and 220 lower than 490. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 270 above is correct.
