When you ask "What number is halfway between 4 and 985?" 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=985.
To find the number halfway between 4 and 985, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 4 and 985 into our formula, we get:
(4 + 985)/2 = 494.5
Thus, the number halfway between 4 and 985 is 494.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 4 from 494.5 and subtract 494.5 from 985 and compare the two numbers:
494.5 - 4 = 490.5
985 - 494.5 = 490.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 490.5 higher than 4 and 490.5 lower than 985. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 494.5 above is correct.
