Halfway Between 71 and 287

When you ask "What number is halfway between 71 and 287?" 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=287.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 71 and 287, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 71 and 287 into our formula, we get:

(71 + 287)/2 = 179

Thus, the number halfway between 71 and 287 is 179.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 71 from 179 and subtract 179 from 287 and compare the two numbers:

179 - 71 = 108
287 - 179 = 108

As you can see, the halfway number is 108 higher than 71 and 108 lower than 287. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 179 above is correct.
