When you ask "What number is halfway between 4 and 86?" 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=86.

To find the number halfway between 4 and 86, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 4 and 86 into our formula, we get:
(4 + 86)/2 = 45
Thus, the number halfway between 4 and 86 is 45.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 4 from 45 and subtract 45 from 86 and compare the two numbers:
45 - 4 = 41
86 - 45 = 41
As you can see, the halfway number is 41 higher than 4 and 41 lower than 86. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 45 above is correct.
