When you ask "What number is halfway between 98 and 161?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=98 and Y=161.
To find the number halfway between 98 and 161, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 98 and 161 into our formula, we get:
(98 + 161)/2 = 129.5
Thus, the number halfway between 98 and 161 is 129.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 98 from 129.5 and subtract 129.5 from 161 and compare the two numbers:
129.5 - 98 = 31.5
161 - 129.5 = 31.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 31.5 higher than 98 and 31.5 lower than 161. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 129.5 above is correct.
