Halfway Between 5 and 106

When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 106?" 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=106.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 5 and 106, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 5 and 106 into our formula, we get:

(5 + 106)/2 = 55.5

Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 106 is 55.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 55.5 and subtract 55.5 from 106 and compare the two numbers:

55.5 - 5 = 50.5
106 - 55.5 = 50.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 50.5 higher than 5 and 50.5 lower than 106. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 55.5 above is correct.
