When you ask "What number is halfway between 62 and 85?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=62 and Y=85.
To find the number halfway between 62 and 85, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 62 and 85 into our formula, we get:
(62 + 85)/2 = 73.5
Thus, the number halfway between 62 and 85 is 73.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 62 from 73.5 and subtract 73.5 from 85 and compare the two numbers:
73.5 - 62 = 11.5
85 - 73.5 = 11.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 11.5 higher than 62 and 11.5 lower than 85. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 73.5 above is correct.
