When you ask "What number is halfway between 8 and 585?" 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=585.
To find the number halfway between 8 and 585, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 8 and 585 into our formula, we get:
(8 + 585)/2 = 296.5
Thus, the number halfway between 8 and 585 is 296.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 8 from 296.5 and subtract 296.5 from 585 and compare the two numbers:
296.5 - 8 = 288.5
585 - 296.5 = 288.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 288.5 higher than 8 and 288.5 lower than 585. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 296.5 above is correct.
