When you ask "What number is halfway between 17 and 579?" 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=579.
To find the number halfway between 17 and 579, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 17 and 579 into our formula, we get:
(17 + 579)/2 = 298
Thus, the number halfway between 17 and 579 is 298.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 17 from 298 and subtract 298 from 579 and compare the two numbers:
298 - 17 = 281
579 - 298 = 281
As you can see, the halfway number is 281 higher than 17 and 281 lower than 579. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 298 above is correct.
