Halfway Between 5 and 124

When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 124?" 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=124.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 5 and 124, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 5 and 124 into our formula, we get:

(5 + 124)/2 = 64.5

Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 124 is 64.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 64.5 and subtract 64.5 from 124 and compare the two numbers:

64.5 - 5 = 59.5
124 - 64.5 = 59.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 59.5 higher than 5 and 59.5 lower than 124. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 64.5 above is correct.
