When you ask "What number is halfway between 50 and 872?" 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=872.

To find the number halfway between 50 and 872, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 50 and 872 into our formula, we get:
(50 + 872)/2 = 461
Thus, the number halfway between 50 and 872 is 461.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 50 from 461 and subtract 461 from 872 and compare the two numbers:
461 - 50 = 411
872 - 461 = 411
As you can see, the halfway number is 411 higher than 50 and 411 lower than 872. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 461 above is correct.
