Halfway Between 72 and 475

When you ask "What number is halfway between 72 and 475?" 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=475.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 72 and 475, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 72 and 475 into our formula, we get:

(72 + 475)/2 = 273.5

Thus, the number halfway between 72 and 475 is 273.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 72 from 273.5 and subtract 273.5 from 475 and compare the two numbers:

273.5 - 72 = 201.5
475 - 273.5 = 201.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 201.5 higher than 72 and 201.5 lower than 475. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 273.5 above is correct.
