When you ask "What number is halfway between 74 and 79?" 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=79.
To find the number halfway between 74 and 79, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 74 and 79 into our formula, we get:
(74 + 79)/2 = 76.5
Thus, the number halfway between 74 and 79 is 76.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 74 from 76.5 and subtract 76.5 from 79 and compare the two numbers:
76.5 - 74 = 2.5
79 - 76.5 = 2.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 2.5 higher than 74 and 2.5 lower than 79. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 76.5 above is correct.
