When you ask "What number is halfway between 55 and 985?" 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=985.

To find the number halfway between 55 and 985, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 55 and 985 into our formula, we get:
(55 + 985)/2 = 520
Thus, the number halfway between 55 and 985 is 520.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 55 from 520 and subtract 520 from 985 and compare the two numbers:
520 - 55 = 465
985 - 520 = 465
As you can see, the halfway number is 465 higher than 55 and 465 lower than 985. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 520 above is correct.
