When you ask "What number is halfway between 85 and 228?" 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=228.
To find the number halfway between 85 and 228, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 85 and 228 into our formula, we get:
(85 + 228)/2 = 156.5
Thus, the number halfway between 85 and 228 is 156.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 85 from 156.5 and subtract 156.5 from 228 and compare the two numbers:
156.5 - 85 = 71.5
228 - 156.5 = 71.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 71.5 higher than 85 and 71.5 lower than 228. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 156.5 above is correct.
