When you ask "What number is halfway between 16 and 989?" 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=989.
To find the number halfway between 16 and 989, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 16 and 989 into our formula, we get:
(16 + 989)/2 = 502.5
Thus, the number halfway between 16 and 989 is 502.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 16 from 502.5 and subtract 502.5 from 989 and compare the two numbers:
502.5 - 16 = 486.5
989 - 502.5 = 486.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 486.5 higher than 16 and 486.5 lower than 989. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 502.5 above is correct.
