When you ask "What number is halfway between 39 and 740?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=39 and Y=740.
To find the number halfway between 39 and 740, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 39 and 740 into our formula, we get:
(39 + 740)/2 = 389.5
Thus, the number halfway between 39 and 740 is 389.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 39 from 389.5 and subtract 389.5 from 740 and compare the two numbers:
389.5 - 39 = 350.5
740 - 389.5 = 350.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 350.5 higher than 39 and 350.5 lower than 740. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 389.5 above is correct.
