When you ask "What number is halfway between 21 and 897?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=21 and Y=897.

To find the number halfway between 21 and 897, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 21 and 897 into our formula, we get:
(21 + 897)/2 = 459
Thus, the number halfway between 21 and 897 is 459.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 21 from 459 and subtract 459 from 897 and compare the two numbers:
459 - 21 = 438
897 - 459 = 438
As you can see, the halfway number is 438 higher than 21 and 438 lower than 897. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 459 above is correct.
