When you ask "What number is halfway between 2 and 557?" 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=557.
To find the number halfway between 2 and 557, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 2 and 557 into our formula, we get:
(2 + 557)/2 = 279.5
Thus, the number halfway between 2 and 557 is 279.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 2 from 279.5 and subtract 279.5 from 557 and compare the two numbers:
279.5 - 2 = 277.5
557 - 279.5 = 277.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 277.5 higher than 2 and 277.5 lower than 557. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 279.5 above is correct.
