Halfway Between 72 and 300

When you ask "What number is halfway between 72 and 300?" 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=300.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 72 and 300, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 72 and 300 into our formula, we get:

(72 + 300)/2 = 186

Thus, the number halfway between 72 and 300 is 186.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 72 from 186 and subtract 186 from 300 and compare the two numbers:

186 - 72 = 114
300 - 186 = 114

As you can see, the halfway number is 114 higher than 72 and 114 lower than 300. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 186 above is correct.
