When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 143?" 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=143.
To find the number halfway between 5 and 143, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 5 and 143 into our formula, we get:
(5 + 143)/2 = 74
Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 143 is 74.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 74 and subtract 74 from 143 and compare the two numbers:
74 - 5 = 69
143 - 74 = 69
As you can see, the halfway number is 69 higher than 5 and 69 lower than 143. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 74 above is correct.
