Halfway Between 72 and 455

When you ask "What number is halfway between 72 and 455?" 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=455.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 72 and 455, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 72 and 455 into our formula, we get:

(72 + 455)/2 = 263.5

Thus, the number halfway between 72 and 455 is 263.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 72 from 263.5 and subtract 263.5 from 455 and compare the two numbers:

263.5 - 72 = 191.5
455 - 263.5 = 191.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 191.5 higher than 72 and 191.5 lower than 455. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 263.5 above is correct.
