Halfway Between 85 and 550

When you ask "What number is halfway between 85 and 550?" 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=550.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 85 and 550, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 85 and 550 into our formula, we get:

(85 + 550)/2 = 317.5

Thus, the number halfway between 85 and 550 is 317.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 85 from 317.5 and subtract 317.5 from 550 and compare the two numbers:

317.5 - 85 = 232.5
550 - 317.5 = 232.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 232.5 higher than 85 and 232.5 lower than 550. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 317.5 above is correct.
