Halfway Between 72 and 241

When you ask "What number is halfway between 72 and 241?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=72 and Y=241.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 72 and 241, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 72 and 241 into our formula, we get:

(72 + 241)/2 = 156.5

Thus, the number halfway between 72 and 241 is 156.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 72 from 156.5 and subtract 156.5 from 241 and compare the two numbers:

156.5 - 72 = 84.5
241 - 156.5 = 84.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 84.5 higher than 72 and 84.5 lower than 241. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 156.5 above is correct.
