When you ask "What number is halfway between 40 and 119?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=40 and Y=119.
To find the number halfway between 40 and 119, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 40 and 119 into our formula, we get:
(40 + 119)/2 = 79.5
Thus, the number halfway between 40 and 119 is 79.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 40 from 79.5 and subtract 79.5 from 119 and compare the two numbers:
79.5 - 40 = 39.5
119 - 79.5 = 39.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 39.5 higher than 40 and 39.5 lower than 119. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 79.5 above is correct.
