When you ask "What number is halfway between 73 and 261?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=73 and Y=261.
To find the number halfway between 73 and 261, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 73 and 261 into our formula, we get:
(73 + 261)/2 = 167
Thus, the number halfway between 73 and 261 is 167.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 73 from 167 and subtract 167 from 261 and compare the two numbers:
167 - 73 = 94
261 - 167 = 94
As you can see, the halfway number is 94 higher than 73 and 94 lower than 261. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 167 above is correct.
