When you ask "What number is halfway between 17 and 470?" 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=470.
To find the number halfway between 17 and 470, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 17 and 470 into our formula, we get:
(17 + 470)/2 = 243.5
Thus, the number halfway between 17 and 470 is 243.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 17 from 243.5 and subtract 243.5 from 470 and compare the two numbers:
243.5 - 17 = 226.5
470 - 243.5 = 226.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 226.5 higher than 17 and 226.5 lower than 470. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 243.5 above is correct.
