When you ask "What number is halfway between 61 and 98?" 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=98.
To find the number halfway between 61 and 98, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 61 and 98 into our formula, we get:
(61 + 98)/2 = 79.5
Thus, the number halfway between 61 and 98 is 79.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 61 from 79.5 and subtract 79.5 from 98 and compare the two numbers:
79.5 - 61 = 18.5
98 - 79.5 = 18.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 18.5 higher than 61 and 18.5 lower than 98. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 79.5 above is correct.
