When you ask "What number is halfway between 8 and 500?" 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=500.

To find the number halfway between 8 and 500, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 8 and 500 into our formula, we get:
(8 + 500)/2 = 254
Thus, the number halfway between 8 and 500 is 254.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 8 from 254 and subtract 254 from 500 and compare the two numbers:
254 - 8 = 246
500 - 254 = 246
As you can see, the halfway number is 246 higher than 8 and 246 lower than 500. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 254 above is correct.
