When you ask "What number is halfway between 86 and 990?" 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=990.

To find the number halfway between 86 and 990, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 86 and 990 into our formula, we get:
(86 + 990)/2 = 538
Thus, the number halfway between 86 and 990 is 538.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 86 from 538 and subtract 538 from 990 and compare the two numbers:
538 - 86 = 452
990 - 538 = 452
As you can see, the halfway number is 452 higher than 86 and 452 lower than 990. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 538 above is correct.
