Halfway Between 53 and 470

When you ask "What number is halfway between 53 and 470?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=53 and Y=470.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 53 and 470, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 53 and 470 into our formula, we get:

(53 + 470)/2 = 261.5

Thus, the number halfway between 53 and 470 is 261.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 53 from 261.5 and subtract 261.5 from 470 and compare the two numbers:

261.5 - 53 = 208.5
470 - 261.5 = 208.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 208.5 higher than 53 and 208.5 lower than 470. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 261.5 above is correct.
