When you ask "What number is halfway between 59 and 88?" 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=88.
To find the number halfway between 59 and 88, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 59 and 88 into our formula, we get:
(59 + 88)/2 = 73.5
Thus, the number halfway between 59 and 88 is 73.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 59 from 73.5 and subtract 73.5 from 88 and compare the two numbers:
73.5 - 59 = 14.5
88 - 73.5 = 14.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 14.5 higher than 59 and 14.5 lower than 88. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 73.5 above is correct.
