When you ask "What number is halfway between 24 and 493?" 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=493.
To find the number halfway between 24 and 493, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 24 and 493 into our formula, we get:
(24 + 493)/2 = 258.5
Thus, the number halfway between 24 and 493 is 258.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 24 from 258.5 and subtract 258.5 from 493 and compare the two numbers:
258.5 - 24 = 234.5
493 - 258.5 = 234.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 234.5 higher than 24 and 234.5 lower than 493. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 258.5 above is correct.
