Halfway Between 8 and 256

When you ask "What number is halfway between 8 and 256?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=8 and Y=256.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 8 and 256, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 8 and 256 into our formula, we get:

(8 + 256)/2 = 132

Thus, the number halfway between 8 and 256 is 132.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 8 from 132 and subtract 132 from 256 and compare the two numbers:

132 - 8 = 124
256 - 132 = 124

As you can see, the halfway number is 124 higher than 8 and 124 lower than 256. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 132 above is correct.
