Halfway Between 8 and 998

When you ask "What number is halfway between 8 and 998?" 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=998.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 8 and 998, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 8 and 998 into our formula, we get:

(8 + 998)/2 = 503

Thus, the number halfway between 8 and 998 is 503.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 8 from 503 and subtract 503 from 998 and compare the two numbers:

503 - 8 = 495
998 - 503 = 495

As you can see, the halfway number is 495 higher than 8 and 495 lower than 998. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 503 above is correct.
