When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 196?" 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=196.
To find the number halfway between 5 and 196, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 5 and 196 into our formula, we get:
(5 + 196)/2 = 100.5
Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 196 is 100.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 100.5 and subtract 100.5 from 196 and compare the two numbers:
100.5 - 5 = 95.5
196 - 100.5 = 95.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 95.5 higher than 5 and 95.5 lower than 196. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 100.5 above is correct.
