Halfway Between 55 and 492

When you ask "What number is halfway between 55 and 492?" 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=492.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 55 and 492, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 55 and 492 into our formula, we get:

(55 + 492)/2 = 273.5

Thus, the number halfway between 55 and 492 is 273.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 55 from 273.5 and subtract 273.5 from 492 and compare the two numbers:

273.5 - 55 = 218.5
492 - 273.5 = 218.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 218.5 higher than 55 and 218.5 lower than 492. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 273.5 above is correct.
