When you ask "What number is halfway between 86 and 417?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=86 and Y=417.

To find the number halfway between 86 and 417, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 86 and 417 into our formula, we get:
(86 + 417)/2 = 251.5
Thus, the number halfway between 86 and 417 is 251.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 86 from 251.5 and subtract 251.5 from 417 and compare the two numbers:
251.5 - 86 = 165.5
417 - 251.5 = 165.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 165.5 higher than 86 and 165.5 lower than 417. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 251.5 above is correct.
