When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 160?" 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=160.
To find the number halfway between 5 and 160, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 5 and 160 into our formula, we get:
(5 + 160)/2 = 82.5
Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 160 is 82.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 82.5 and subtract 82.5 from 160 and compare the two numbers:
82.5 - 5 = 77.5
160 - 82.5 = 77.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 77.5 higher than 5 and 77.5 lower than 160. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 82.5 above is correct.
