When you ask "What number is halfway between 3 and 862?" 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=862.
To find the number halfway between 3 and 862, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 3 and 862 into our formula, we get:
(3 + 862)/2 = 432.5
Thus, the number halfway between 3 and 862 is 432.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 3 from 432.5 and subtract 432.5 from 862 and compare the two numbers:
432.5 - 3 = 429.5
862 - 432.5 = 429.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 429.5 higher than 3 and 429.5 lower than 862. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 432.5 above is correct.
