When you ask "What number is halfway between 74 and 407?" 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=407.
To find the number halfway between 74 and 407, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 74 and 407 into our formula, we get:
(74 + 407)/2 = 240.5
Thus, the number halfway between 74 and 407 is 240.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 74 from 240.5 and subtract 240.5 from 407 and compare the two numbers:
240.5 - 74 = 166.5
407 - 240.5 = 166.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 166.5 higher than 74 and 166.5 lower than 407. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 240.5 above is correct.
