When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 230?" 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=230.
To find the number halfway between 5 and 230, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 5 and 230 into our formula, we get:
(5 + 230)/2 = 117.5
Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 230 is 117.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 117.5 and subtract 117.5 from 230 and compare the two numbers:
117.5 - 5 = 112.5
230 - 117.5 = 112.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 112.5 higher than 5 and 112.5 lower than 230. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 117.5 above is correct.
