When you ask "What number is halfway between 47 and 986?" 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=986.
To find the number halfway between 47 and 986, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 47 and 986 into our formula, we get:
(47 + 986)/2 = 516.5
Thus, the number halfway between 47 and 986 is 516.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 47 from 516.5 and subtract 516.5 from 986 and compare the two numbers:
516.5 - 47 = 469.5
986 - 516.5 = 469.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 469.5 higher than 47 and 469.5 lower than 986. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 516.5 above is correct.
