When you ask "What number is halfway between 1 and 542?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=1 and Y=542.
To find the number halfway between 1 and 542, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 1 and 542 into our formula, we get:
(1 + 542)/2 = 271.5
Thus, the number halfway between 1 and 542 is 271.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 1 from 271.5 and subtract 271.5 from 542 and compare the two numbers:
271.5 - 1 = 270.5
542 - 271.5 = 270.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 270.5 higher than 1 and 270.5 lower than 542. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 271.5 above is correct.
