When you ask "What number is halfway between 23 and 498?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=23 and Y=498.
To find the number halfway between 23 and 498, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 23 and 498 into our formula, we get:
(23 + 498)/2 = 260.5
Thus, the number halfway between 23 and 498 is 260.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 23 from 260.5 and subtract 260.5 from 498 and compare the two numbers:
260.5 - 23 = 237.5
498 - 260.5 = 237.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 237.5 higher than 23 and 237.5 lower than 498. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 260.5 above is correct.
