When you ask "What number is halfway between 42 and 885?" 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=885.
To find the number halfway between 42 and 885, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 42 and 885 into our formula, we get:
(42 + 885)/2 = 463.5
Thus, the number halfway between 42 and 885 is 463.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 42 from 463.5 and subtract 463.5 from 885 and compare the two numbers:
463.5 - 42 = 421.5
885 - 463.5 = 421.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 421.5 higher than 42 and 421.5 lower than 885. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 463.5 above is correct.
