When you ask "What number is halfway between 8 and 286?" 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=286.
To find the number halfway between 8 and 286, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 8 and 286 into our formula, we get:
(8 + 286)/2 = 147
Thus, the number halfway between 8 and 286 is 147.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 8 from 147 and subtract 147 from 286 and compare the two numbers:
147 - 8 = 139
286 - 147 = 139
As you can see, the halfway number is 139 higher than 8 and 139 lower than 286. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 147 above is correct.
