When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 388?" 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=388.
To find the number halfway between 5 and 388, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 5 and 388 into our formula, we get:
(5 + 388)/2 = 196.5
Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 388 is 196.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 196.5 and subtract 196.5 from 388 and compare the two numbers:
196.5 - 5 = 191.5
388 - 196.5 = 191.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 191.5 higher than 5 and 191.5 lower than 388. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 196.5 above is correct.
