When you ask "What number is halfway between 26 and 473?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=26 and Y=473.
To find the number halfway between 26 and 473, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 26 and 473 into our formula, we get:
(26 + 473)/2 = 249.5
Thus, the number halfway between 26 and 473 is 249.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 26 from 249.5 and subtract 249.5 from 473 and compare the two numbers:
249.5 - 26 = 223.5
473 - 249.5 = 223.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 223.5 higher than 26 and 223.5 lower than 473. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 249.5 above is correct.
