When you ask "What number is halfway between 0 and 5?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=0 and Y=5.
To find the number halfway between 0 and 5, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 0 and 5 into our formula, we get:
(0 + 5)/2 = 2.5
Thus, the number halfway between 0 and 5 is 2.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 0 from 2.5 and subtract 2.5 from 5 and compare the two numbers:
2.5 - 0 = 2.5
5 - 2.5 = 2.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 2.5 higher than 0 and 2.5 lower than 5. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 2.5 above is correct.
