When you ask "What number is halfway between 47 and 279?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=47 and Y=279.
To find the number halfway between 47 and 279, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 47 and 279 into our formula, we get:
(47 + 279)/2 = 163
Thus, the number halfway between 47 and 279 is 163.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 47 from 163 and subtract 163 from 279 and compare the two numbers:
163 - 47 = 116
279 - 163 = 116
As you can see, the halfway number is 116 higher than 47 and 116 lower than 279. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 163 above is correct.
