Halfway Between 55 and 496

When you ask "What number is halfway between 55 and 496?" 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=496.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 55 and 496, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 55 and 496 into our formula, we get:

(55 + 496)/2 = 275.5

Thus, the number halfway between 55 and 496 is 275.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 55 from 275.5 and subtract 275.5 from 496 and compare the two numbers:

275.5 - 55 = 220.5
496 - 275.5 = 220.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 220.5 higher than 55 and 220.5 lower than 496. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 275.5 above is correct.
