When you ask "What number is halfway between 76 and 279?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=76 and Y=279.
To find the number halfway between 76 and 279, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 76 and 279 into our formula, we get:
(76 + 279)/2 = 177.5
Thus, the number halfway between 76 and 279 is 177.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 76 from 177.5 and subtract 177.5 from 279 and compare the two numbers:
177.5 - 76 = 101.5
279 - 177.5 = 101.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 101.5 higher than 76 and 101.5 lower than 279. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 177.5 above is correct.
