When you ask "What number is halfway between 85 and 160?" 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=160.
To find the number halfway between 85 and 160, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 85 and 160 into our formula, we get:
(85 + 160)/2 = 122.5
Thus, the number halfway between 85 and 160 is 122.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 85 from 122.5 and subtract 122.5 from 160 and compare the two numbers:
122.5 - 85 = 37.5
160 - 122.5 = 37.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 37.5 higher than 85 and 37.5 lower than 160. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 122.5 above is correct.
