When you ask "What number is halfway between 42 and 596?" 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=596.
To find the number halfway between 42 and 596, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 42 and 596 into our formula, we get:
(42 + 596)/2 = 319
Thus, the number halfway between 42 and 596 is 319.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 42 from 319 and subtract 319 from 596 and compare the two numbers:
319 - 42 = 277
596 - 319 = 277
As you can see, the halfway number is 277 higher than 42 and 277 lower than 596. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 319 above is correct.
