When you ask "What number is halfway between 42 and 199?" 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=199.
To find the number halfway between 42 and 199, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 42 and 199 into our formula, we get:
(42 + 199)/2 = 120.5
Thus, the number halfway between 42 and 199 is 120.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 42 from 120.5 and subtract 120.5 from 199 and compare the two numbers:
120.5 - 42 = 78.5
199 - 120.5 = 78.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 78.5 higher than 42 and 78.5 lower than 199. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 120.5 above is correct.
