When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 173?" 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=173.
To find the number halfway between 5 and 173, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 5 and 173 into our formula, we get:
(5 + 173)/2 = 89
Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 173 is 89.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 89 and subtract 89 from 173 and compare the two numbers:
89 - 5 = 84
173 - 89 = 84
As you can see, the halfway number is 84 higher than 5 and 84 lower than 173. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 89 above is correct.
