When you ask "What number is halfway between 8 and 486?" 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=486.
To find the number halfway between 8 and 486, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 8 and 486 into our formula, we get:
(8 + 486)/2 = 247
Thus, the number halfway between 8 and 486 is 247.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 8 from 247 and subtract 247 from 486 and compare the two numbers:
247 - 8 = 239
486 - 247 = 239
As you can see, the halfway number is 239 higher than 8 and 239 lower than 486. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 247 above is correct.
