When you ask "What number is halfway between 17 and 216?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=17 and Y=216.
To find the number halfway between 17 and 216, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 17 and 216 into our formula, we get:
(17 + 216)/2 = 116.5
Thus, the number halfway between 17 and 216 is 116.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 17 from 116.5 and subtract 116.5 from 216 and compare the two numbers:
116.5 - 17 = 99.5
216 - 116.5 = 99.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 99.5 higher than 17 and 99.5 lower than 216. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 116.5 above is correct.
