Halfway Between 55 and 261

When you ask "What number is halfway between 55 and 261?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=55 and Y=261.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 55 and 261, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 55 and 261 into our formula, we get:

(55 + 261)/2 = 158

Thus, the number halfway between 55 and 261 is 158.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 55 from 158 and subtract 158 from 261 and compare the two numbers:

158 - 55 = 103
261 - 158 = 103

As you can see, the halfway number is 103 higher than 55 and 103 lower than 261. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 158 above is correct.
