When you ask "What number is halfway between 8 and 495?" 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=495.
To find the number halfway between 8 and 495, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 8 and 495 into our formula, we get:
(8 + 495)/2 = 251.5
Thus, the number halfway between 8 and 495 is 251.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 8 from 251.5 and subtract 251.5 from 495 and compare the two numbers:
251.5 - 8 = 243.5
495 - 251.5 = 243.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 243.5 higher than 8 and 243.5 lower than 495. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 251.5 above is correct.
