When you ask "What number is halfway between 17 and 970?" 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=970.
To find the number halfway between 17 and 970, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 17 and 970 into our formula, we get:
(17 + 970)/2 = 493.5
Thus, the number halfway between 17 and 970 is 493.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 17 from 493.5 and subtract 493.5 from 970 and compare the two numbers:
493.5 - 17 = 476.5
970 - 493.5 = 476.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 476.5 higher than 17 and 476.5 lower than 970. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 493.5 above is correct.
