When you ask "What number is halfway between 47 and 862?" 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=862.
To find the number halfway between 47 and 862, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 47 and 862 into our formula, we get:
(47 + 862)/2 = 454.5
Thus, the number halfway between 47 and 862 is 454.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 47 from 454.5 and subtract 454.5 from 862 and compare the two numbers:
454.5 - 47 = 407.5
862 - 454.5 = 407.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 407.5 higher than 47 and 407.5 lower than 862. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 454.5 above is correct.
