When you ask "What number is halfway between 73 and 498?" 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=498.
To find the number halfway between 73 and 498, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 73 and 498 into our formula, we get:
(73 + 498)/2 = 285.5
Thus, the number halfway between 73 and 498 is 285.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 73 from 285.5 and subtract 285.5 from 498 and compare the two numbers:
285.5 - 73 = 212.5
498 - 285.5 = 212.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 212.5 higher than 73 and 212.5 lower than 498. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 285.5 above is correct.
