When you ask "What number is halfway between 26 and 971?" 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=971.

To find the number halfway between 26 and 971, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 26 and 971 into our formula, we get:
(26 + 971)/2 = 498.5
Thus, the number halfway between 26 and 971 is 498.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 26 from 498.5 and subtract 498.5 from 971 and compare the two numbers:
498.5 - 26 = 472.5
971 - 498.5 = 472.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 472.5 higher than 26 and 472.5 lower than 971. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 498.5 above is correct.
