When you ask "What number is halfway between 8 and 989?" 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=989.
To find the number halfway between 8 and 989, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 8 and 989 into our formula, we get:
(8 + 989)/2 = 498.5
Thus, the number halfway between 8 and 989 is 498.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 8 from 498.5 and subtract 498.5 from 989 and compare the two numbers:
498.5 - 8 = 490.5
989 - 498.5 = 490.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 490.5 higher than 8 and 490.5 lower than 989. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 498.5 above is correct.
