When you ask "What number is halfway between 4 and 285?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=4 and Y=285.
To find the number halfway between 4 and 285, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 4 and 285 into our formula, we get:
(4 + 285)/2 = 144.5
Thus, the number halfway between 4 and 285 is 144.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 4 from 144.5 and subtract 144.5 from 285 and compare the two numbers:
144.5 - 4 = 140.5
285 - 144.5 = 140.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 140.5 higher than 4 and 140.5 lower than 285. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 144.5 above is correct.
