When you ask "What number is halfway between 2 and 589?" 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=589.

To find the number halfway between 2 and 589, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 2 and 589 into our formula, we get:
(2 + 589)/2 = 295.5
Thus, the number halfway between 2 and 589 is 295.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 2 from 295.5 and subtract 295.5 from 589 and compare the two numbers:
295.5 - 2 = 293.5
589 - 295.5 = 293.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 293.5 higher than 2 and 293.5 lower than 589. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 295.5 above is correct.
