Halfway Between 5 and 426

When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 426?" 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=426.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 5 and 426, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 5 and 426 into our formula, we get:

(5 + 426)/2 = 215.5

Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 426 is 215.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 215.5 and subtract 215.5 from 426 and compare the two numbers:

215.5 - 5 = 210.5
426 - 215.5 = 210.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 210.5 higher than 5 and 210.5 lower than 426. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 215.5 above is correct.
