When you ask "What number is halfway between 78 and 471?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=78 and Y=471.
To find the number halfway between 78 and 471, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 78 and 471 into our formula, we get:
(78 + 471)/2 = 274.5
Thus, the number halfway between 78 and 471 is 274.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 78 from 274.5 and subtract 274.5 from 471 and compare the two numbers:
274.5 - 78 = 196.5
471 - 274.5 = 196.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 196.5 higher than 78 and 196.5 lower than 471. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 274.5 above is correct.
