When you ask "What number is halfway between 79 and 160?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=79 and Y=160.
To find the number halfway between 79 and 160, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 79 and 160 into our formula, we get:
(79 + 160)/2 = 119.5
Thus, the number halfway between 79 and 160 is 119.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 79 from 119.5 and subtract 119.5 from 160 and compare the two numbers:
119.5 - 79 = 40.5
160 - 119.5 = 40.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 40.5 higher than 79 and 40.5 lower than 160. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 119.5 above is correct.
