When you ask "What number is halfway between 21 and 972?" 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=972.
To find the number halfway between 21 and 972, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 21 and 972 into our formula, we get:
(21 + 972)/2 = 496.5
Thus, the number halfway between 21 and 972 is 496.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 21 from 496.5 and subtract 496.5 from 972 and compare the two numbers:
496.5 - 21 = 475.5
972 - 496.5 = 475.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 475.5 higher than 21 and 475.5 lower than 972. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 496.5 above is correct.
