Halfway Between 5 and 340

When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 340?" 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=340.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 5 and 340, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 5 and 340 into our formula, we get:

(5 + 340)/2 = 172.5

Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 340 is 172.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 172.5 and subtract 172.5 from 340 and compare the two numbers:

172.5 - 5 = 167.5
340 - 172.5 = 167.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 167.5 higher than 5 and 167.5 lower than 340. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 172.5 above is correct.
