When you ask "What number is halfway between 3 and 272?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=3 and Y=272.
To find the number halfway between 3 and 272, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 3 and 272 into our formula, we get:
(3 + 272)/2 = 137.5
Thus, the number halfway between 3 and 272 is 137.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 3 from 137.5 and subtract 137.5 from 272 and compare the two numbers:
137.5 - 3 = 134.5
272 - 137.5 = 134.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 134.5 higher than 3 and 134.5 lower than 272. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 137.5 above is correct.
