When you ask "What number is halfway between 12 and 557?" 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=557.
To find the number halfway between 12 and 557, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 12 and 557 into our formula, we get:
(12 + 557)/2 = 284.5
Thus, the number halfway between 12 and 557 is 284.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 12 from 284.5 and subtract 284.5 from 557 and compare the two numbers:
284.5 - 12 = 272.5
557 - 284.5 = 272.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 272.5 higher than 12 and 272.5 lower than 557. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 284.5 above is correct.
