When you ask "What number is halfway between 7 and 28?" 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=28.
To find the number halfway between 7 and 28, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 7 and 28 into our formula, we get:
(7 + 28)/2 = 17.5
Thus, the number halfway between 7 and 28 is 17.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 7 from 17.5 and subtract 17.5 from 28 and compare the two numbers:
17.5 - 7 = 10.5
28 - 17.5 = 10.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 10.5 higher than 7 and 10.5 lower than 28. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 17.5 above is correct.
