When you ask "What number is halfway between 6 and 278?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=6 and Y=278.
To find the number halfway between 6 and 278, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 6 and 278 into our formula, we get:
(6 + 278)/2 = 142
Thus, the number halfway between 6 and 278 is 142.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 6 from 142 and subtract 142 from 278 and compare the two numbers:
142 - 6 = 136
278 - 142 = 136
As you can see, the halfway number is 136 higher than 6 and 136 lower than 278. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 142 above is correct.
