When you ask "What number is halfway between 42 and 901?" 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=901.
To find the number halfway between 42 and 901, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 42 and 901 into our formula, we get:
(42 + 901)/2 = 471.5
Thus, the number halfway between 42 and 901 is 471.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 42 from 471.5 and subtract 471.5 from 901 and compare the two numbers:
471.5 - 42 = 429.5
901 - 471.5 = 429.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 429.5 higher than 42 and 429.5 lower than 901. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 471.5 above is correct.
