When you ask "What number is halfway between 79 and 472?" 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=472.
To find the number halfway between 79 and 472, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 79 and 472 into our formula, we get:
(79 + 472)/2 = 275.5
Thus, the number halfway between 79 and 472 is 275.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 79 from 275.5 and subtract 275.5 from 472 and compare the two numbers:
275.5 - 79 = 196.5
472 - 275.5 = 196.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 196.5 higher than 79 and 196.5 lower than 472. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 275.5 above is correct.
