Halfway Between 72 and 520

When you ask "What number is halfway between 72 and 520?" 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=520.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 72 and 520, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 72 and 520 into our formula, we get:

(72 + 520)/2 = 296

Thus, the number halfway between 72 and 520 is 296.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 72 from 296 and subtract 296 from 520 and compare the two numbers:

296 - 72 = 224
520 - 296 = 224

As you can see, the halfway number is 224 higher than 72 and 224 lower than 520. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 296 above is correct.
