When you ask "What number is halfway between 42 and 975?" 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=975.
To find the number halfway between 42 and 975, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 42 and 975 into our formula, we get:
(42 + 975)/2 = 508.5
Thus, the number halfway between 42 and 975 is 508.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 42 from 508.5 and subtract 508.5 from 975 and compare the two numbers:
508.5 - 42 = 466.5
975 - 508.5 = 466.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 466.5 higher than 42 and 466.5 lower than 975. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 508.5 above is correct.
