When you ask "What number is halfway between 16 and 539?" 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=539.
To find the number halfway between 16 and 539, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 16 and 539 into our formula, we get:
(16 + 539)/2 = 277.5
Thus, the number halfway between 16 and 539 is 277.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 16 from 277.5 and subtract 277.5 from 539 and compare the two numbers:
277.5 - 16 = 261.5
539 - 277.5 = 261.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 261.5 higher than 16 and 261.5 lower than 539. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 277.5 above is correct.
