When you ask "What number is halfway between 2 and 59?" 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=59.
To find the number halfway between 2 and 59, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 2 and 59 into our formula, we get:
(2 + 59)/2 = 30.5
Thus, the number halfway between 2 and 59 is 30.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 2 from 30.5 and subtract 30.5 from 59 and compare the two numbers:
30.5 - 2 = 28.5
59 - 30.5 = 28.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 28.5 higher than 2 and 28.5 lower than 59. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 30.5 above is correct.
