When you ask "What number is halfway between 12 and 971?" 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=971.
To find the number halfway between 12 and 971, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 12 and 971 into our formula, we get:
(12 + 971)/2 = 491.5
Thus, the number halfway between 12 and 971 is 491.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 12 from 491.5 and subtract 491.5 from 971 and compare the two numbers:
491.5 - 12 = 479.5
971 - 491.5 = 479.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 479.5 higher than 12 and 479.5 lower than 971. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 491.5 above is correct.
