When you ask "What number is halfway between 8 and 589?" 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=589.
To find the number halfway between 8 and 589, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 8 and 589 into our formula, we get:
(8 + 589)/2 = 298.5
Thus, the number halfway between 8 and 589 is 298.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 8 from 298.5 and subtract 298.5 from 589 and compare the two numbers:
298.5 - 8 = 290.5
589 - 298.5 = 290.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 290.5 higher than 8 and 290.5 lower than 589. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 298.5 above is correct.
