When you ask "What number is halfway between 56 and 405?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=56 and Y=405.

To find the number halfway between 56 and 405, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 56 and 405 into our formula, we get:
(56 + 405)/2 = 230.5
Thus, the number halfway between 56 and 405 is 230.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 56 from 230.5 and subtract 230.5 from 405 and compare the two numbers:
230.5 - 56 = 174.5
405 - 230.5 = 174.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 174.5 higher than 56 and 174.5 lower than 405. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 230.5 above is correct.
