When you ask "What number is halfway between 8 and 873?" 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=873.
To find the number halfway between 8 and 873, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 8 and 873 into our formula, we get:
(8 + 873)/2 = 440.5
Thus, the number halfway between 8 and 873 is 440.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 8 from 440.5 and subtract 440.5 from 873 and compare the two numbers:
440.5 - 8 = 432.5
873 - 440.5 = 432.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 432.5 higher than 8 and 432.5 lower than 873. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 440.5 above is correct.
