When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 276?" 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=276.
To find the number halfway between 5 and 276, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 5 and 276 into our formula, we get:
(5 + 276)/2 = 140.5
Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 276 is 140.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 140.5 and subtract 140.5 from 276 and compare the two numbers:
140.5 - 5 = 135.5
276 - 140.5 = 135.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 135.5 higher than 5 and 135.5 lower than 276. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 140.5 above is correct.
