When you ask "What number is halfway between 16 and 523?" 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=523.

To find the number halfway between 16 and 523, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 16 and 523 into our formula, we get:
(16 + 523)/2 = 269.5
Thus, the number halfway between 16 and 523 is 269.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 16 from 269.5 and subtract 269.5 from 523 and compare the two numbers:
269.5 - 16 = 253.5
523 - 269.5 = 253.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 253.5 higher than 16 and 253.5 lower than 523. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 269.5 above is correct.
