Halfway Between 72 and 388

When you ask "What number is halfway between 72 and 388?" 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=388.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 72 and 388, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 72 and 388 into our formula, we get:

(72 + 388)/2 = 230

Thus, the number halfway between 72 and 388 is 230.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 72 from 230 and subtract 230 from 388 and compare the two numbers:

230 - 72 = 158
388 - 230 = 158

As you can see, the halfway number is 158 higher than 72 and 158 lower than 388. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 230 above is correct.
