When you ask "What number is halfway between 16 and 287?" 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=287.
To find the number halfway between 16 and 287, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 16 and 287 into our formula, we get:
(16 + 287)/2 = 151.5
Thus, the number halfway between 16 and 287 is 151.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 16 from 151.5 and subtract 151.5 from 287 and compare the two numbers:
151.5 - 16 = 135.5
287 - 151.5 = 135.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 135.5 higher than 16 and 135.5 lower than 287. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 151.5 above is correct.
