Halfway Between 85 and 740

When you ask "What number is halfway between 85 and 740?" 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=740.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 85 and 740, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 85 and 740 into our formula, we get:

(85 + 740)/2 = 412.5

Thus, the number halfway between 85 and 740 is 412.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 85 from 412.5 and subtract 412.5 from 740 and compare the two numbers:

412.5 - 85 = 327.5
740 - 412.5 = 327.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 327.5 higher than 85 and 327.5 lower than 740. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 412.5 above is correct.
