When you ask "What number is halfway between 8 and 255?" 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=255.
To find the number halfway between 8 and 255, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 8 and 255 into our formula, we get:
(8 + 255)/2 = 131.5
Thus, the number halfway between 8 and 255 is 131.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 8 from 131.5 and subtract 131.5 from 255 and compare the two numbers:
131.5 - 8 = 123.5
255 - 131.5 = 123.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 123.5 higher than 8 and 123.5 lower than 255. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 131.5 above is correct.
