When you ask "What number is halfway between 17 and 572?" 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=572.
To find the number halfway between 17 and 572, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 17 and 572 into our formula, we get:
(17 + 572)/2 = 294.5
Thus, the number halfway between 17 and 572 is 294.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 17 from 294.5 and subtract 294.5 from 572 and compare the two numbers:
294.5 - 17 = 277.5
572 - 294.5 = 277.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 277.5 higher than 17 and 277.5 lower than 572. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 294.5 above is correct.
