'Halfway' Q
Can someone, please, clarify.
Does HALFWAY mean exactly that - half? My D put in the last column difference between the product and the sum.
Q: Calculate the product and the sum of each pair of numbers in the table and then calculate the number which is HALFWAY between each sum and product.
12 and 3 - product (36); sum (15); halfway (10.5 ???)
17 and 5 - product (85); sum (22); halfway (31.5 ???)
Thanks

I would have thought it meant what it says - the number that is halfway in between the two numbers you have found. Try the following method:- imagine they are houses along a road - find the number of the house that is halfway in between house number 15 and house number 36.
Hope this is right.
Good luck.
