When you ask "What number is halfway between 2 and 259?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=2 and Y=259.

To find the number halfway between 2 and 259, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 2 and 259 into our formula, we get:
(2 + 259)/2 = 130.5
Thus, the number halfway between 2 and 259 is 130.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 2 from 130.5 and subtract 130.5 from 259 and compare the two numbers:
130.5 - 2 = 128.5
259 - 130.5 = 128.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 128.5 higher than 2 and 128.5 lower than 259. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 130.5 above is correct.
