When you ask "What number is halfway between 16 and 73?" 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=73.
To find the number halfway between 16 and 73, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 16 and 73 into our formula, we get:
(16 + 73)/2 = 44.5
Thus, the number halfway between 16 and 73 is 44.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 16 from 44.5 and subtract 44.5 from 73 and compare the two numbers:
44.5 - 16 = 28.5
73 - 44.5 = 28.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 28.5 higher than 16 and 28.5 lower than 73. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 44.5 above is correct.
