When you ask "What number is halfway between 42 and 88?" 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=88.
To find the number halfway between 42 and 88, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 42 and 88 into our formula, we get:
(42 + 88)/2 = 65
Thus, the number halfway between 42 and 88 is 65.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 42 from 65 and subtract 65 from 88 and compare the two numbers:
65 - 42 = 23
88 - 65 = 23
As you can see, the halfway number is 23 higher than 42 and 23 lower than 88. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 65 above is correct.
