Halfway Between 72 and 478

When you ask "What number is halfway between 72 and 478?" 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=478.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 72 and 478, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 72 and 478 into our formula, we get:

(72 + 478)/2 = 275

Thus, the number halfway between 72 and 478 is 275.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 72 from 275 and subtract 275 from 478 and compare the two numbers:

275 - 72 = 203
478 - 275 = 203

As you can see, the halfway number is 203 higher than 72 and 203 lower than 478. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 275 above is correct.
