When you ask "What number is halfway between 1 and 988?" 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=988.
To find the number halfway between 1 and 988, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 1 and 988 into our formula, we get:
(1 + 988)/2 = 494.5
Thus, the number halfway between 1 and 988 is 494.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 1 from 494.5 and subtract 494.5 from 988 and compare the two numbers:
494.5 - 1 = 493.5
988 - 494.5 = 493.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 493.5 higher than 1 and 493.5 lower than 988. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 494.5 above is correct.
