When you ask "What number is halfway between 8 and 161?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=8 and Y=161.
To find the number halfway between 8 and 161, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 8 and 161 into our formula, we get:
(8 + 161)/2 = 84.5
Thus, the number halfway between 8 and 161 is 84.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 8 from 84.5 and subtract 84.5 from 161 and compare the two numbers:
84.5 - 8 = 76.5
161 - 84.5 = 76.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 76.5 higher than 8 and 76.5 lower than 161. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 84.5 above is correct.
