When you ask "What number is halfway between 38 and 283?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=38 and Y=283.
To find the number halfway between 38 and 283, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 38 and 283 into our formula, we get:
(38 + 283)/2 = 160.5
Thus, the number halfway between 38 and 283 is 160.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 38 from 160.5 and subtract 160.5 from 283 and compare the two numbers:
160.5 - 38 = 122.5
283 - 160.5 = 122.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 122.5 higher than 38 and 122.5 lower than 283. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 160.5 above is correct.
