When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 320?" 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=320.
To find the number halfway between 5 and 320, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 5 and 320 into our formula, we get:
(5 + 320)/2 = 162.5
Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 320 is 162.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 162.5 and subtract 162.5 from 320 and compare the two numbers:
162.5 - 5 = 157.5
320 - 162.5 = 157.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 157.5 higher than 5 and 157.5 lower than 320. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 162.5 above is correct.
