When you ask "What number is halfway between 42 and 738?" 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=738.

To find the number halfway between 42 and 738, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 42 and 738 into our formula, we get:
(42 + 738)/2 = 390
Thus, the number halfway between 42 and 738 is 390.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 42 from 390 and subtract 390 from 738 and compare the two numbers:
390 - 42 = 348
738 - 390 = 348
As you can see, the halfway number is 348 higher than 42 and 348 lower than 738. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 390 above is correct.
