When you ask "What number is halfway between 16 and 579?" 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=579.
To find the number halfway between 16 and 579, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 16 and 579 into our formula, we get:
(16 + 579)/2 = 297.5
Thus, the number halfway between 16 and 579 is 297.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 16 from 297.5 and subtract 297.5 from 579 and compare the two numbers:
297.5 - 16 = 281.5
579 - 297.5 = 281.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 281.5 higher than 16 and 281.5 lower than 579. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 297.5 above is correct.
