When you ask "What number is halfway between 40 and 283?" 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=283.
To find the number halfway between 40 and 283, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 40 and 283 into our formula, we get:
(40 + 283)/2 = 161.5
Thus, the number halfway between 40 and 283 is 161.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 40 from 161.5 and subtract 161.5 from 283 and compare the two numbers:
161.5 - 40 = 121.5
283 - 161.5 = 121.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 121.5 higher than 40 and 121.5 lower than 283. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 161.5 above is correct.
