Halfway Between 5 and 406

When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 406?" 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=406.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 5 and 406, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 5 and 406 into our formula, we get:

(5 + 406)/2 = 205.5

Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 406 is 205.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 205.5 and subtract 205.5 from 406 and compare the two numbers:

205.5 - 5 = 200.5
406 - 205.5 = 200.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 200.5 higher than 5 and 200.5 lower than 406. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 205.5 above is correct.
