When you ask "What number is halfway between 61 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=61 and Y=178.
To find the number halfway between 61 and 178, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 61 and 178 into our formula, we get:
(61 + 178)/2 = 119.5
Thus, the number halfway between 61 and 178 is 119.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 61 from 119.5 and subtract 119.5 from 178 and compare the two numbers:
119.5 - 61 = 58.5
178 - 119.5 = 58.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 58.5 higher than 61 and 58.5 lower than 178. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 119.5 above is correct.
