Halfway Between 85 and 502

When you ask "What number is halfway between 85 and 502?" 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=502.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 85 and 502, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 85 and 502 into our formula, we get:

(85 + 502)/2 = 293.5

Thus, the number halfway between 85 and 502 is 293.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 85 from 293.5 and subtract 293.5 from 502 and compare the two numbers:

293.5 - 85 = 208.5
502 - 293.5 = 208.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 208.5 higher than 85 and 208.5 lower than 502. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 293.5 above is correct.
