When you ask "What number is halfway between 8 and 988?" 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=988.
To find the number halfway between 8 and 988, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 8 and 988 into our formula, we get:
(8 + 988)/2 = 498
Thus, the number halfway between 8 and 988 is 498.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 8 from 498 and subtract 498 from 988 and compare the two numbers:
498 - 8 = 490
988 - 498 = 490
As you can see, the halfway number is 490 higher than 8 and 490 lower than 988. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 498 above is correct.
