When you ask "What number is halfway between 40 and 286?" 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=286.
To find the number halfway between 40 and 286, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 40 and 286 into our formula, we get:
(40 + 286)/2 = 163
Thus, the number halfway between 40 and 286 is 163.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 40 from 163 and subtract 163 from 286 and compare the two numbers:
163 - 40 = 123
286 - 163 = 123
As you can see, the halfway number is 123 higher than 40 and 123 lower than 286. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 163 above is correct.
