When you ask "What number is halfway between 97 and 538?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=97 and Y=538.
To find the number halfway between 97 and 538, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 97 and 538 into our formula, we get:
(97 + 538)/2 = 317.5
Thus, the number halfway between 97 and 538 is 317.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 97 from 317.5 and subtract 317.5 from 538 and compare the two numbers:
317.5 - 97 = 220.5
538 - 317.5 = 220.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 220.5 higher than 97 and 220.5 lower than 538. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 317.5 above is correct.
