When you ask "What number is halfway between 2 and 39?" 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=39.
To find the number halfway between 2 and 39, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 2 and 39 into our formula, we get:
(2 + 39)/2 = 20.5
Thus, the number halfway between 2 and 39 is 20.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 2 from 20.5 and subtract 20.5 from 39 and compare the two numbers:
20.5 - 2 = 18.5
39 - 20.5 = 18.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 18.5 higher than 2 and 18.5 lower than 39. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 20.5 above is correct.
