When you ask "What number is halfway between 71 and 496?" 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=496.
To find the number halfway between 71 and 496, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 71 and 496 into our formula, we get:
(71 + 496)/2 = 283.5
Thus, the number halfway between 71 and 496 is 283.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 71 from 283.5 and subtract 283.5 from 496 and compare the two numbers:
283.5 - 71 = 212.5
496 - 283.5 = 212.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 212.5 higher than 71 and 212.5 lower than 496. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 283.5 above is correct.
