When you ask "What number is halfway between 16 and 859?" 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=859.
To find the number halfway between 16 and 859, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 16 and 859 into our formula, we get:
(16 + 859)/2 = 437.5
Thus, the number halfway between 16 and 859 is 437.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 16 from 437.5 and subtract 437.5 from 859 and compare the two numbers:
437.5 - 16 = 421.5
859 - 437.5 = 421.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 421.5 higher than 16 and 421.5 lower than 859. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 437.5 above is correct.
