Halfway Between 72 and 408

When you ask "What number is halfway between 72 and 408?" 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=408.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 72 and 408, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 72 and 408 into our formula, we get:

(72 + 408)/2 = 240

Thus, the number halfway between 72 and 408 is 240.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 72 from 240 and subtract 240 from 408 and compare the two numbers:

240 - 72 = 168
408 - 240 = 168

As you can see, the halfway number is 168 higher than 72 and 168 lower than 408. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 240 above is correct.
