When you ask "What number is halfway between 17 and 460?" 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=460.
To find the number halfway between 17 and 460, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 17 and 460 into our formula, we get:
(17 + 460)/2 = 238.5
Thus, the number halfway between 17 and 460 is 238.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 17 from 238.5 and subtract 238.5 from 460 and compare the two numbers:
238.5 - 17 = 221.5
460 - 238.5 = 221.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 221.5 higher than 17 and 221.5 lower than 460. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 238.5 above is correct.
