Halfway Between 5 and 104

When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 104?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=5 and Y=104.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 5 and 104, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 5 and 104 into our formula, we get:

(5 + 104)/2 = 54.5

Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 104 is 54.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 54.5 and subtract 54.5 from 104 and compare the two numbers:

54.5 - 5 = 49.5
104 - 54.5 = 49.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 49.5 higher than 5 and 49.5 lower than 104. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 54.5 above is correct.
