When you ask "What number is halfway between 17 and 262?" 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=262.
To find the number halfway between 17 and 262, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 17 and 262 into our formula, we get:
(17 + 262)/2 = 139.5
Thus, the number halfway between 17 and 262 is 139.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 17 from 139.5 and subtract 139.5 from 262 and compare the two numbers:
139.5 - 17 = 122.5
262 - 139.5 = 122.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 122.5 higher than 17 and 122.5 lower than 262. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 139.5 above is correct.
