Halfway Between 72 and 547

When you ask "What number is halfway between 72 and 547?" 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=547.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 72 and 547, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 72 and 547 into our formula, we get:

(72 + 547)/2 = 309.5

Thus, the number halfway between 72 and 547 is 309.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 72 from 309.5 and subtract 309.5 from 547 and compare the two numbers:

309.5 - 72 = 237.5
547 - 309.5 = 237.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 237.5 higher than 72 and 237.5 lower than 547. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 309.5 above is correct.
