Halfway Between 5 and 401

When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 401?" 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=401.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 5 and 401, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 5 and 401 into our formula, we get:

(5 + 401)/2 = 203

Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 401 is 203.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 203 and subtract 203 from 401 and compare the two numbers:

203 - 5 = 198
401 - 203 = 198

As you can see, the halfway number is 198 higher than 5 and 198 lower than 401. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 203 above is correct.
