When you ask "What number is halfway between 72 and 473?" 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=473.
To find the number halfway between 72 and 473, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 72 and 473 into our formula, we get:
(72 + 473)/2 = 272.5
Thus, the number halfway between 72 and 473 is 272.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 72 from 272.5 and subtract 272.5 from 473 and compare the two numbers:
272.5 - 72 = 200.5
473 - 272.5 = 200.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 200.5 higher than 72 and 200.5 lower than 473. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 272.5 above is correct.
