When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 27?" 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=27.

To find the number halfway between 5 and 27, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 5 and 27 into our formula, we get:
(5 + 27)/2 = 16
Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 27 is 16.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 16 and subtract 16 from 27 and compare the two numbers:
16 - 5 = 11
27 - 16 = 11
As you can see, the halfway number is 11 higher than 5 and 11 lower than 27. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 16 above is correct.
