Question

If the area of a park is exactly halfway between 2.4 and 2.5 acres what is the area of the park

Answer 1

Get the distance between two acres.

2.5 - 2.4 = 0.1

Divide the diffence by 2
0.1 / 2 = 0.05 - Halfway between them.

Therefore, 0.05 must be taken from 2.5 acres. it must be added to 2.4 acres to get the exact area of the park.

2.5 - 0.05 = 2.45
2.4 + 0.04 = 2.45 acres

OR

Simply get the average of the two to get the area since it is exactly halfway between the two acres of land.

2.5 + 2.4 = 2.9 / 2 = 2.45 acres

Answer 2

Well you have 0.1 so ÷ by 2
