When you ask "What number is halfway between 12 and 286?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=12 and Y=286.

To find the number halfway between 12 and 286, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 12 and 286 into our formula, we get:
(12 + 286)/2 = 149
Thus, the number halfway between 12 and 286 is 149.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 12 from 149 and subtract 149 from 286 and compare the two numbers:
149 - 12 = 137
286 - 149 = 137
As you can see, the halfway number is 137 higher than 12 and 137 lower than 286. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 149 above is correct.
