Halfway Between 5 and 312

When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 312?" 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=312.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 5 and 312, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 5 and 312 into our formula, we get:

(5 + 312)/2 = 158.5

Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 312 is 158.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 158.5 and subtract 158.5 from 312 and compare the two numbers:

158.5 - 5 = 153.5
312 - 158.5 = 153.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 153.5 higher than 5 and 153.5 lower than 312. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 158.5 above is correct.
