When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 268?" 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=268.
To find the number halfway between 5 and 268, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 5 and 268 into our formula, we get:
(5 + 268)/2 = 136.5
Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 268 is 136.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 136.5 and subtract 136.5 from 268 and compare the two numbers:
136.5 - 5 = 131.5
268 - 136.5 = 131.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 131.5 higher than 5 and 131.5 lower than 268. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 136.5 above is correct.
