Halfway Between 8 and 280

When you ask "What number is halfway between 8 and 280?" 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=280.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 8 and 280, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 8 and 280 into our formula, we get:

(8 + 280)/2 = 144

Thus, the number halfway between 8 and 280 is 144.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 8 from 144 and subtract 144 from 280 and compare the two numbers:

144 - 8 = 136
280 - 144 = 136

As you can see, the halfway number is 136 higher than 8 and 136 lower than 280. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 144 above is correct.
