When you ask "What number is halfway between 72 and 852?" 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=852.

To find the number halfway between 72 and 852, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 72 and 852 into our formula, we get:
(72 + 852)/2 = 462
Thus, the number halfway between 72 and 852 is 462.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 72 from 462 and subtract 462 from 852 and compare the two numbers:
462 - 72 = 390
852 - 462 = 390
As you can see, the halfway number is 390 higher than 72 and 390 lower than 852. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 462 above is correct.
