When you ask "What number is halfway between 17 and 82?" 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=82.
To find the number halfway between 17 and 82, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 17 and 82 into our formula, we get:
(17 + 82)/2 = 49.5
Thus, the number halfway between 17 and 82 is 49.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 17 from 49.5 and subtract 49.5 from 82 and compare the two numbers:
49.5 - 17 = 32.5
82 - 49.5 = 32.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 32.5 higher than 17 and 32.5 lower than 82. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 49.5 above is correct.
