When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 116?" 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=116.
To find the number halfway between 5 and 116, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 5 and 116 into our formula, we get:
(5 + 116)/2 = 60.5
Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 116 is 60.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 60.5 and subtract 60.5 from 116 and compare the two numbers:
60.5 - 5 = 55.5
116 - 60.5 = 55.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 55.5 higher than 5 and 55.5 lower than 116. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 60.5 above is correct.
