When you ask "What number is halfway between 2 and 47?" 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=47.
To find the number halfway between 2 and 47, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 2 and 47 into our formula, we get:
(2 + 47)/2 = 24.5
Thus, the number halfway between 2 and 47 is 24.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 2 from 24.5 and subtract 24.5 from 47 and compare the two numbers:
24.5 - 2 = 22.5
47 - 24.5 = 22.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 22.5 higher than 2 and 22.5 lower than 47. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 24.5 above is correct.
