When you ask "What number is halfway between 56 and 159?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=56 and Y=159.
To find the number halfway between 56 and 159, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 56 and 159 into our formula, we get:
(56 + 159)/2 = 107.5
Thus, the number halfway between 56 and 159 is 107.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 56 from 107.5 and subtract 107.5 from 159 and compare the two numbers:
107.5 - 56 = 51.5
159 - 107.5 = 51.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 51.5 higher than 56 and 51.5 lower than 159. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 107.5 above is correct.
