Halfway Between 72 and 442

When you ask "What number is halfway between 72 and 442?" 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=442.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 72 and 442, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 72 and 442 into our formula, we get:

(72 + 442)/2 = 257

Thus, the number halfway between 72 and 442 is 257.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 72 from 257 and subtract 257 from 442 and compare the two numbers:

257 - 72 = 185
442 - 257 = 185

As you can see, the halfway number is 185 higher than 72 and 185 lower than 442. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 257 above is correct.
