When you ask "What number is halfway between 24 and 259?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=24 and Y=259.
To find the number halfway between 24 and 259, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 24 and 259 into our formula, we get:
(24 + 259)/2 = 141.5
Thus, the number halfway between 24 and 259 is 141.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 24 from 141.5 and subtract 141.5 from 259 and compare the two numbers:
141.5 - 24 = 117.5
259 - 141.5 = 117.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 117.5 higher than 24 and 117.5 lower than 259. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 141.5 above is correct.
