When you ask "What number is halfway between 9 and 38?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=9 and Y=38.
To find the number halfway between 9 and 38, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 9 and 38 into our formula, we get:
(9 + 38)/2 = 23.5
Thus, the number halfway between 9 and 38 is 23.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 9 from 23.5 and subtract 23.5 from 38 and compare the two numbers:
23.5 - 9 = 14.5
38 - 23.5 = 14.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 14.5 higher than 9 and 14.5 lower than 38. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 23.5 above is correct.
