When you ask "What number is halfway between 20 and 285?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=20 and Y=285.
To find the number halfway between 20 and 285, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 20 and 285 into our formula, we get:
(20 + 285)/2 = 152.5
Thus, the number halfway between 20 and 285 is 152.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 20 from 152.5 and subtract 152.5 from 285 and compare the two numbers:
152.5 - 20 = 132.5
285 - 152.5 = 132.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 132.5 higher than 20 and 132.5 lower than 285. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 152.5 above is correct.
