When you ask "What number is halfway between 74 and 123?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=74 and Y=123.
To find the number halfway between 74 and 123, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 74 and 123 into our formula, we get:
(74 + 123)/2 = 98.5
Thus, the number halfway between 74 and 123 is 98.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 74 from 98.5 and subtract 98.5 from 123 and compare the two numbers:
98.5 - 74 = 24.5
123 - 98.5 = 24.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 24.5 higher than 74 and 24.5 lower than 123. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 98.5 above is correct.
