Halfway Between 16 and 147

When you ask "What number is halfway between 16 and 147?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=16 and Y=147.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 16 and 147, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 16 and 147 into our formula, we get:

(16 + 147)/2 = 81.5

Thus, the number halfway between 16 and 147 is 81.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 16 from 81.5 and subtract 81.5 from 147 and compare the two numbers:

81.5 - 16 = 65.5
147 - 81.5 = 65.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 65.5 higher than 16 and 65.5 lower than 147. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 81.5 above is correct.
