Halfway Between 85 and 491

When you ask "What number is halfway between 85 and 491?" 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=491.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 85 and 491, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 85 and 491 into our formula, we get:

(85 + 491)/2 = 288

Thus, the number halfway between 85 and 491 is 288.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 85 from 288 and subtract 288 from 491 and compare the two numbers:

288 - 85 = 203
491 - 288 = 203

As you can see, the halfway number is 203 higher than 85 and 203 lower than 491. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 288 above is correct.
