Halfway Between 72 and 550

When you ask "What number is halfway between 72 and 550?" 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=550.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 72 and 550, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 72 and 550 into our formula, we get:

(72 + 550)/2 = 311

Thus, the number halfway between 72 and 550 is 311.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 72 from 311 and subtract 311 from 550 and compare the two numbers:

311 - 72 = 239
550 - 311 = 239

As you can see, the halfway number is 239 higher than 72 and 239 lower than 550. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 311 above is correct.
