Halfway Between 85 and 462

When you ask "What number is halfway between 85 and 462?" 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=462.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 85 and 462, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 85 and 462 into our formula, we get:

(85 + 462)/2 = 273.5

Thus, the number halfway between 85 and 462 is 273.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 85 from 273.5 and subtract 273.5 from 462 and compare the two numbers:

273.5 - 85 = 188.5
462 - 273.5 = 188.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 188.5 higher than 85 and 188.5 lower than 462. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 273.5 above is correct.
