When you ask "What number is halfway between 87 and 460?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=87 and Y=460.
To find the number halfway between 87 and 460, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 87 and 460 into our formula, we get:
(87 + 460)/2 = 273.5
Thus, the number halfway between 87 and 460 is 273.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 87 from 273.5 and subtract 273.5 from 460 and compare the two numbers:
273.5 - 87 = 186.5
460 - 273.5 = 186.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 186.5 higher than 87 and 186.5 lower than 460. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 273.5 above is correct.
