When you ask "What number is halfway between 16 and 265?" 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=265.
To find the number halfway between 16 and 265, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 16 and 265 into our formula, we get:
(16 + 265)/2 = 140.5
Thus, the number halfway between 16 and 265 is 140.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 16 from 140.5 and subtract 140.5 from 265 and compare the two numbers:
140.5 - 16 = 124.5
265 - 140.5 = 124.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 124.5 higher than 16 and 124.5 lower than 265. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 140.5 above is correct.
