When you ask "What number is halfway between 72 and 277?" 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=277.
To find the number halfway between 72 and 277, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 72 and 277 into our formula, we get:
(72 + 277)/2 = 174.5
Thus, the number halfway between 72 and 277 is 174.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 72 from 174.5 and subtract 174.5 from 277 and compare the two numbers:
174.5 - 72 = 102.5
277 - 174.5 = 102.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 102.5 higher than 72 and 102.5 lower than 277. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 174.5 above is correct.
