When you ask "What number is halfway between 42 and 779?" 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=779.
To find the number halfway between 42 and 779, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 42 and 779 into our formula, we get:
(42 + 779)/2 = 410.5
Thus, the number halfway between 42 and 779 is 410.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 42 from 410.5 and subtract 410.5 from 779 and compare the two numbers:
410.5 - 42 = 368.5
779 - 410.5 = 368.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 368.5 higher than 42 and 368.5 lower than 779. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 410.5 above is correct.
