When you ask "What number is halfway between 7 and 26?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=7 and Y=26.
To find the number halfway between 7 and 26, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 7 and 26 into our formula, we get:
(7 + 26)/2 = 16.5
Thus, the number halfway between 7 and 26 is 16.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 7 from 16.5 and subtract 16.5 from 26 and compare the two numbers:
16.5 - 7 = 9.5
26 - 16.5 = 9.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 9.5 higher than 7 and 9.5 lower than 26. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 16.5 above is correct.
