When you ask "What number is halfway between 16 and 542?" 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=542.
To find the number halfway between 16 and 542, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 16 and 542 into our formula, we get:
(16 + 542)/2 = 279
Thus, the number halfway between 16 and 542 is 279.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 16 from 279 and subtract 279 from 542 and compare the two numbers:
279 - 16 = 263
542 - 279 = 263
As you can see, the halfway number is 263 higher than 16 and 263 lower than 542. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 279 above is correct.
