Halfway Between 53 and 480

When you ask "What number is halfway between 53 and 480?" 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=480.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 53 and 480, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 53 and 480 into our formula, we get:

(53 + 480)/2 = 266.5

Thus, the number halfway between 53 and 480 is 266.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 53 from 266.5 and subtract 266.5 from 480 and compare the two numbers:

266.5 - 53 = 213.5
480 - 266.5 = 213.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 213.5 higher than 53 and 213.5 lower than 480. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 266.5 above is correct.
