Halfway Between 5 and 247

When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 247?" 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=247.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 5 and 247, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 5 and 247 into our formula, we get:

(5 + 247)/2 = 126

Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 247 is 126.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 126 and subtract 126 from 247 and compare the two numbers:

126 - 5 = 121
247 - 126 = 121

As you can see, the halfway number is 121 higher than 5 and 121 lower than 247. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 126 above is correct.
