When you ask "What number is halfway between 71 and 261?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=71 and Y=261.
To find the number halfway between 71 and 261, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 71 and 261 into our formula, we get:
(71 + 261)/2 = 166
Thus, the number halfway between 71 and 261 is 166.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 71 from 166 and subtract 166 from 261 and compare the two numbers:
166 - 71 = 95
261 - 166 = 95
As you can see, the halfway number is 95 higher than 71 and 95 lower than 261. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 166 above is correct.
