When you ask "What number is halfway between 79 and 262?" 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=262.
To find the number halfway between 79 and 262, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 79 and 262 into our formula, we get:
(79 + 262)/2 = 170.5
Thus, the number halfway between 79 and 262 is 170.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 79 from 170.5 and subtract 170.5 from 262 and compare the two numbers:
170.5 - 79 = 91.5
262 - 170.5 = 91.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 91.5 higher than 79 and 91.5 lower than 262. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 170.5 above is correct.
