Halfway Between 6 and 998

When you ask "What number is halfway between 6 and 998?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=6 and Y=998.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 6 and 998, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 6 and 998 into our formula, we get:

(6 + 998)/2 = 502

Thus, the number halfway between 6 and 998 is 502.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 6 from 502 and subtract 502 from 998 and compare the two numbers:

502 - 6 = 496
998 - 502 = 496

As you can see, the halfway number is 496 higher than 6 and 496 lower than 998. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 502 above is correct.
