When you ask "What number is halfway between 98 and 501?" 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=501.
To find the number halfway between 98 and 501, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 98 and 501 into our formula, we get:
(98 + 501)/2 = 299.5
Thus, the number halfway between 98 and 501 is 299.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 98 from 299.5 and subtract 299.5 from 501 and compare the two numbers:
299.5 - 98 = 201.5
501 - 299.5 = 201.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 201.5 higher than 98 and 201.5 lower than 501. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 299.5 above is correct.
