When you ask "What number is halfway between 12 and 856?" 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=856.

To find the number halfway between 12 and 856, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 12 and 856 into our formula, we get:
(12 + 856)/2 = 434
Thus, the number halfway between 12 and 856 is 434.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 12 from 434 and subtract 434 from 856 and compare the two numbers:
434 - 12 = 422
856 - 434 = 422
As you can see, the halfway number is 422 higher than 12 and 422 lower than 856. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 434 above is correct.
