When you ask "What number is halfway between 50 and 71?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=50 and Y=71.
To find the number halfway between 50 and 71, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 50 and 71 into our formula, we get:
(50 + 71)/2 = 60.5
Thus, the number halfway between 50 and 71 is 60.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 50 from 60.5 and subtract 60.5 from 71 and compare the two numbers:
60.5 - 50 = 10.5
71 - 60.5 = 10.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 10.5 higher than 50 and 10.5 lower than 71. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 60.5 above is correct.
