When you ask "What number is halfway between 8 and 485?" 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=485.

To find the number halfway between 8 and 485, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 8 and 485 into our formula, we get:
(8 + 485)/2 = 246.5
Thus, the number halfway between 8 and 485 is 246.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 8 from 246.5 and subtract 246.5 from 485 and compare the two numbers:
246.5 - 8 = 238.5
485 - 246.5 = 238.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 238.5 higher than 8 and 238.5 lower than 485. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 246.5 above is correct.
