Halfway Between 71 and 279

When you ask "What number is halfway between 71 and 279?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=71 and Y=279.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 71 and 279, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 71 and 279 into our formula, we get:

(71 + 279)/2 = 175

Thus, the number halfway between 71 and 279 is 175.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 71 from 175 and subtract 175 from 279 and compare the two numbers:

175 - 71 = 104
279 - 175 = 104

As you can see, the halfway number is 104 higher than 71 and 104 lower than 279. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 175 above is correct.
