When you ask "What number is halfway between 17 and 839?" 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=839.

To find the number halfway between 17 and 839, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 17 and 839 into our formula, we get:
(17 + 839)/2 = 428
Thus, the number halfway between 17 and 839 is 428.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 17 from 428 and subtract 428 from 839 and compare the two numbers:
428 - 17 = 411
839 - 428 = 411
As you can see, the halfway number is 411 higher than 17 and 411 lower than 839. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 428 above is correct.
