When you ask "What number is halfway between 17 and 586?" 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=586.
To find the number halfway between 17 and 586, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 17 and 586 into our formula, we get:
(17 + 586)/2 = 301.5
Thus, the number halfway between 17 and 586 is 301.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 17 from 301.5 and subtract 301.5 from 586 and compare the two numbers:
301.5 - 17 = 284.5
586 - 301.5 = 284.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 284.5 higher than 17 and 284.5 lower than 586. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 301.5 above is correct.
