When you ask "What number is halfway between 62 and 87?" 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=87.
To find the number halfway between 62 and 87, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 62 and 87 into our formula, we get:
(62 + 87)/2 = 74.5
Thus, the number halfway between 62 and 87 is 74.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 62 from 74.5 and subtract 74.5 from 87 and compare the two numbers:
74.5 - 62 = 12.5
87 - 74.5 = 12.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 12.5 higher than 62 and 12.5 lower than 87. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 74.5 above is correct.
