When you ask "What number is halfway between 71 and 342?" 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=342.
To find the number halfway between 71 and 342, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 71 and 342 into our formula, we get:
(71 + 342)/2 = 206.5
Thus, the number halfway between 71 and 342 is 206.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 71 from 206.5 and subtract 206.5 from 342 and compare the two numbers:
206.5 - 71 = 135.5
342 - 206.5 = 135.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 135.5 higher than 71 and 135.5 lower than 342. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 206.5 above is correct.
