When you ask "What number is halfway between 42 and 417?" 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=417.
To find the number halfway between 42 and 417, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 42 and 417 into our formula, we get:
(42 + 417)/2 = 229.5
Thus, the number halfway between 42 and 417 is 229.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 42 from 229.5 and subtract 229.5 from 417 and compare the two numbers:
229.5 - 42 = 187.5
417 - 229.5 = 187.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 187.5 higher than 42 and 187.5 lower than 417. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 229.5 above is correct.
