When you ask "What number is halfway between 3 and 878?" 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=878.
To find the number halfway between 3 and 878, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 3 and 878 into our formula, we get:
(3 + 878)/2 = 440.5
Thus, the number halfway between 3 and 878 is 440.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 3 from 440.5 and subtract 440.5 from 878 and compare the two numbers:
440.5 - 3 = 437.5
878 - 440.5 = 437.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 437.5 higher than 3 and 437.5 lower than 878. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 440.5 above is correct.
