When you ask "What number is halfway between 3 and 988?" 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=988.
To find the number halfway between 3 and 988, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 3 and 988 into our formula, we get:
(3 + 988)/2 = 495.5
Thus, the number halfway between 3 and 988 is 495.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 3 from 495.5 and subtract 495.5 from 988 and compare the two numbers:
495.5 - 3 = 492.5
988 - 495.5 = 492.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 492.5 higher than 3 and 492.5 lower than 988. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 495.5 above is correct.
