When you ask "What number is halfway between 55 and 142?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=55 and Y=142.
To find the number halfway between 55 and 142, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 55 and 142 into our formula, we get:
(55 + 142)/2 = 98.5
Thus, the number halfway between 55 and 142 is 98.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 55 from 98.5 and subtract 98.5 from 142 and compare the two numbers:
98.5 - 55 = 43.5
142 - 98.5 = 43.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 43.5 higher than 55 and 43.5 lower than 142. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 98.5 above is correct.
