When you ask "What number is halfway between 79 and 236?" 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=236.
To find the number halfway between 79 and 236, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 79 and 236 into our formula, we get:
(79 + 236)/2 = 157.5
Thus, the number halfway between 79 and 236 is 157.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 79 from 157.5 and subtract 157.5 from 236 and compare the two numbers:
157.5 - 79 = 78.5
236 - 157.5 = 78.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 78.5 higher than 79 and 78.5 lower than 236. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 157.5 above is correct.
