When you ask "What number is halfway between 17 and 300?" 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=300.
To find the number halfway between 17 and 300, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 17 and 300 into our formula, we get:
(17 + 300)/2 = 158.5
Thus, the number halfway between 17 and 300 is 158.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 17 from 158.5 and subtract 158.5 from 300 and compare the two numbers:
158.5 - 17 = 141.5
300 - 158.5 = 141.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 141.5 higher than 17 and 141.5 lower than 300. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 158.5 above is correct.
