When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 34?" 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=34.
To find the number halfway between 5 and 34, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 5 and 34 into our formula, we get:
(5 + 34)/2 = 19.5
Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 34 is 19.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 19.5 and subtract 19.5 from 34 and compare the two numbers:
19.5 - 5 = 14.5
34 - 19.5 = 14.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 14.5 higher than 5 and 14.5 lower than 34. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 19.5 above is correct.
