When you ask "What number is halfway between 42 and 186?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=42 and Y=186.
To find the number halfway between 42 and 186, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 42 and 186 into our formula, we get:
(42 + 186)/2 = 114
Thus, the number halfway between 42 and 186 is 114.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 42 from 114 and subtract 114 from 186 and compare the two numbers:
114 - 42 = 72
186 - 114 = 72
As you can see, the halfway number is 72 higher than 42 and 72 lower than 186. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 114 above is correct.
