Halfway Between 53 and 494

When you ask "What number is halfway between 53 and 494?" 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=494.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 53 and 494, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 53 and 494 into our formula, we get:

(53 + 494)/2 = 273.5

Thus, the number halfway between 53 and 494 is 273.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 53 from 273.5 and subtract 273.5 from 494 and compare the two numbers:

273.5 - 53 = 220.5
494 - 273.5 = 220.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 220.5 higher than 53 and 220.5 lower than 494. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 273.5 above is correct.
