When you ask "What number is halfway between 42 and 58?" 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=58.
To find the number halfway between 42 and 58, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 42 and 58 into our formula, we get:
(42 + 58)/2 = 50
Thus, the number halfway between 42 and 58 is 50.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 42 from 50 and subtract 50 from 58 and compare the two numbers:
50 - 42 = 8
58 - 50 = 8
As you can see, the halfway number is 8 higher than 42 and 8 lower than 58. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 50 above is correct.
