Halfway Between 78 and 486

When you ask "What number is halfway between 78 and 486?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=78 and Y=486.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 78 and 486, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 78 and 486 into our formula, we get:

(78 + 486)/2 = 282

Thus, the number halfway between 78 and 486 is 282.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 78 from 282 and subtract 282 from 486 and compare the two numbers:

282 - 78 = 204
486 - 282 = 204

As you can see, the halfway number is 204 higher than 78 and 204 lower than 486. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 282 above is correct.
