When you ask "What number is halfway between 42 and 459?" 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=459.
To find the number halfway between 42 and 459, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 42 and 459 into our formula, we get:
(42 + 459)/2 = 250.5
Thus, the number halfway between 42 and 459 is 250.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 42 from 250.5 and subtract 250.5 from 459 and compare the two numbers:
250.5 - 42 = 208.5
459 - 250.5 = 208.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 208.5 higher than 42 and 208.5 lower than 459. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 250.5 above is correct.
