When you ask "What number is halfway between 8 and 272?" 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=272.
To find the number halfway between 8 and 272, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 8 and 272 into our formula, we get:
(8 + 272)/2 = 140
Thus, the number halfway between 8 and 272 is 140.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 8 from 140 and subtract 140 from 272 and compare the two numbers:
140 - 8 = 132
272 - 140 = 132
As you can see, the halfway number is 132 higher than 8 and 132 lower than 272. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 140 above is correct.
