Halfway Between 72 and 264

When you ask "What number is halfway between 72 and 264?" 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=264.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 72 and 264, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 72 and 264 into our formula, we get:

(72 + 264)/2 = 168

Thus, the number halfway between 72 and 264 is 168.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 72 from 168 and subtract 168 from 264 and compare the two numbers:

168 - 72 = 96
264 - 168 = 96

As you can see, the halfway number is 96 higher than 72 and 96 lower than 264. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 168 above is correct.
