Halfway Between 5 and 156

When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 156?" 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=156.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 5 and 156, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 5 and 156 into our formula, we get:

(5 + 156)/2 = 80.5

Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 156 is 80.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 80.5 and subtract 80.5 from 156 and compare the two numbers:

80.5 - 5 = 75.5
156 - 80.5 = 75.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 75.5 higher than 5 and 75.5 lower than 156. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 80.5 above is correct.
