When you ask "What number is halfway between 8 and 559?" 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=559.
To find the number halfway between 8 and 559, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 8 and 559 into our formula, we get:
(8 + 559)/2 = 283.5
Thus, the number halfway between 8 and 559 is 283.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 8 from 283.5 and subtract 283.5 from 559 and compare the two numbers:
283.5 - 8 = 275.5
559 - 283.5 = 275.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 275.5 higher than 8 and 275.5 lower than 559. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 283.5 above is correct.
