Halfway Between 72 and 266

When you ask "What number is halfway between 72 and 266?" 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=266.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 72 and 266, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 72 and 266 into our formula, we get:

(72 + 266)/2 = 169

Thus, the number halfway between 72 and 266 is 169.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 72 from 169 and subtract 169 from 266 and compare the two numbers:

169 - 72 = 97
266 - 169 = 97

As you can see, the halfway number is 97 higher than 72 and 97 lower than 266. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 169 above is correct.
