When you ask "What number is halfway between 87 and 972?" 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=972.
To find the number halfway between 87 and 972, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 87 and 972 into our formula, we get:
(87 + 972)/2 = 529.5
Thus, the number halfway between 87 and 972 is 529.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 87 from 529.5 and subtract 529.5 from 972 and compare the two numbers:
529.5 - 87 = 442.5
972 - 529.5 = 442.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 442.5 higher than 87 and 442.5 lower than 972. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 529.5 above is correct.
