Halfway Between 5 and 344

When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 344?" 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=344.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 5 and 344, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 5 and 344 into our formula, we get:

(5 + 344)/2 = 174.5

Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 344 is 174.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 174.5 and subtract 174.5 from 344 and compare the two numbers:

174.5 - 5 = 169.5
344 - 174.5 = 169.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 169.5 higher than 5 and 169.5 lower than 344. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 174.5 above is correct.
