When you ask "What number is halfway between 86 and 557?" 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=557.
To find the number halfway between 86 and 557, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 86 and 557 into our formula, we get:
(86 + 557)/2 = 321.5
Thus, the number halfway between 86 and 557 is 321.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 86 from 321.5 and subtract 321.5 from 557 and compare the two numbers:
321.5 - 86 = 235.5
557 - 321.5 = 235.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 235.5 higher than 86 and 235.5 lower than 557. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 321.5 above is correct.
