When you ask "What number is halfway between 17 and 273?" 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=273.
To find the number halfway between 17 and 273, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 17 and 273 into our formula, we get:
(17 + 273)/2 = 145
Thus, the number halfway between 17 and 273 is 145.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 17 from 145 and subtract 145 from 273 and compare the two numbers:
145 - 17 = 128
273 - 145 = 128
As you can see, the halfway number is 128 higher than 17 and 128 lower than 273. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 145 above is correct.
