When you ask "What number is halfway between 4 and 557?" 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=557.

To find the number halfway between 4 and 557, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 4 and 557 into our formula, we get:
(4 + 557)/2 = 280.5
Thus, the number halfway between 4 and 557 is 280.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 4 from 280.5 and subtract 280.5 from 557 and compare the two numbers:
280.5 - 4 = 276.5
557 - 280.5 = 276.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 276.5 higher than 4 and 276.5 lower than 557. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 280.5 above is correct.
