When you ask "What number is halfway between 72 and 233?" 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=233.
To find the number halfway between 72 and 233, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 72 and 233 into our formula, we get:
(72 + 233)/2 = 152.5
Thus, the number halfway between 72 and 233 is 152.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 72 from 152.5 and subtract 152.5 from 233 and compare the two numbers:
152.5 - 72 = 80.5
233 - 152.5 = 80.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 80.5 higher than 72 and 80.5 lower than 233. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 152.5 above is correct.
