When you ask "What number is halfway between 59 and 178?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=59 and Y=178.
To find the number halfway between 59 and 178, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 59 and 178 into our formula, we get:
(59 + 178)/2 = 118.5
Thus, the number halfway between 59 and 178 is 118.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 59 from 118.5 and subtract 118.5 from 178 and compare the two numbers:
118.5 - 59 = 59.5
178 - 118.5 = 59.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 59.5 higher than 59 and 59.5 lower than 178. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 118.5 above is correct.
