Halfway Between 85 and 253

When you ask "What number is halfway between 85 and 253?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=85 and Y=253.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 85 and 253, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 85 and 253 into our formula, we get:

(85 + 253)/2 = 169

Thus, the number halfway between 85 and 253 is 169.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 85 from 169 and subtract 169 from 253 and compare the two numbers:

169 - 85 = 84
253 - 169 = 84

As you can see, the halfway number is 84 higher than 85 and 84 lower than 253. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 169 above is correct.
