When you ask "What number is halfway between 72 and 168?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=72 and Y=168.
To find the number halfway between 72 and 168, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 72 and 168 into our formula, we get:
(72 + 168)/2 = 120
Thus, the number halfway between 72 and 168 is 120.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 72 from 120 and subtract 120 from 168 and compare the two numbers:
120 - 72 = 48
168 - 120 = 48
As you can see, the halfway number is 48 higher than 72 and 48 lower than 168. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 120 above is correct.
