Halfway Between 72 and 274

When you ask "What number is halfway between 72 and 274?" 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=274.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 72 and 274, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 72 and 274 into our formula, we get:

(72 + 274)/2 = 173

Thus, the number halfway between 72 and 274 is 173.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 72 from 173 and subtract 173 from 274 and compare the two numbers:

173 - 72 = 101
274 - 173 = 101

As you can see, the halfway number is 101 higher than 72 and 101 lower than 274. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 173 above is correct.
