When you ask "What number is halfway between 8 and 39?" 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=39.
To find the number halfway between 8 and 39, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 8 and 39 into our formula, we get:
(8 + 39)/2 = 23.5
Thus, the number halfway between 8 and 39 is 23.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 8 from 23.5 and subtract 23.5 from 39 and compare the two numbers:
23.5 - 8 = 15.5
39 - 23.5 = 15.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 15.5 higher than 8 and 15.5 lower than 39. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 23.5 above is correct.
