When you ask "What number is halfway between 16 and 49?" 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=49.
To find the number halfway between 16 and 49, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 16 and 49 into our formula, we get:
(16 + 49)/2 = 32.5
Thus, the number halfway between 16 and 49 is 32.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 16 from 32.5 and subtract 32.5 from 49 and compare the two numbers:
32.5 - 16 = 16.5
49 - 32.5 = 16.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 16.5 higher than 16 and 16.5 lower than 49. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 32.5 above is correct.
