When you ask "What number is halfway between 85 and 159?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=85 and Y=159.
To find the number halfway between 85 and 159, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 85 and 159 into our formula, we get:
(85 + 159)/2 = 122
Thus, the number halfway between 85 and 159 is 122.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 85 from 122 and subtract 122 from 159 and compare the two numbers:
122 - 85 = 37
159 - 122 = 37
As you can see, the halfway number is 37 higher than 85 and 37 lower than 159. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 122 above is correct.
