Halfway Between 9 and 980

When you ask "What number is halfway between 9 and 980?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=9 and Y=980.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 9 and 980, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 9 and 980 into our formula, we get:

(9 + 980)/2 = 494.5

Thus, the number halfway between 9 and 980 is 494.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 9 from 494.5 and subtract 494.5 from 980 and compare the two numbers:

494.5 - 9 = 485.5
980 - 494.5 = 485.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 485.5 higher than 9 and 485.5 lower than 980. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 494.5 above is correct.
