When you ask "What number is halfway between 2 and 287?" 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=287.
To find the number halfway between 2 and 287, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 2 and 287 into our formula, we get:
(2 + 287)/2 = 144.5
Thus, the number halfway between 2 and 287 is 144.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 2 from 144.5 and subtract 144.5 from 287 and compare the two numbers:
144.5 - 2 = 142.5
287 - 144.5 = 142.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 142.5 higher than 2 and 142.5 lower than 287. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 144.5 above is correct.
