Halfway Between 5 and 317

When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 317?" 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=317.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 5 and 317, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 5 and 317 into our formula, we get:

(5 + 317)/2 = 161

Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 317 is 161.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 161 and subtract 161 from 317 and compare the two numbers:

161 - 5 = 156
317 - 161 = 156

As you can see, the halfway number is 156 higher than 5 and 156 lower than 317. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 161 above is correct.
