When you ask "What number is halfway between 16 and 487?" 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=487.
To find the number halfway between 16 and 487, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 16 and 487 into our formula, we get:
(16 + 487)/2 = 251.5
Thus, the number halfway between 16 and 487 is 251.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 16 from 251.5 and subtract 251.5 from 487 and compare the two numbers:
251.5 - 16 = 235.5
487 - 251.5 = 235.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 235.5 higher than 16 and 235.5 lower than 487. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 251.5 above is correct.
