Halfway Between 50 and 497

When you ask "What number is halfway between 50 and 497?" 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=497.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 50 and 497, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 50 and 497 into our formula, we get:

(50 + 497)/2 = 273.5

Thus, the number halfway between 50 and 497 is 273.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 50 from 273.5 and subtract 273.5 from 497 and compare the two numbers:

273.5 - 50 = 223.5
497 - 273.5 = 223.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 223.5 higher than 50 and 223.5 lower than 497. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 273.5 above is correct.
