When you ask "What number is halfway between 17 and 761?" 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=761.

To find the number halfway between 17 and 761, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 17 and 761 into our formula, we get:
(17 + 761)/2 = 389
Thus, the number halfway between 17 and 761 is 389.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 17 from 389 and subtract 389 from 761 and compare the two numbers:
389 - 17 = 372
761 - 389 = 372
As you can see, the halfway number is 372 higher than 17 and 372 lower than 761. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 389 above is correct.
