When you ask "What number is halfway between 26 and 487?" 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=487.
To find the number halfway between 26 and 487, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 26 and 487 into our formula, we get:
(26 + 487)/2 = 256.5
Thus, the number halfway between 26 and 487 is 256.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 26 from 256.5 and subtract 256.5 from 487 and compare the two numbers:
256.5 - 26 = 230.5
487 - 256.5 = 230.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 230.5 higher than 26 and 230.5 lower than 487. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 256.5 above is correct.
