Halfway Between 72 and 406

When you ask "What number is halfway between 72 and 406?" 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=406.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 72 and 406, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 72 and 406 into our formula, we get:

(72 + 406)/2 = 239

Thus, the number halfway between 72 and 406 is 239.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 72 from 239 and subtract 239 from 406 and compare the two numbers:

239 - 72 = 167
406 - 239 = 167

As you can see, the halfway number is 167 higher than 72 and 167 lower than 406. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 239 above is correct.
