Halfway Between 5 and 428

When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 428?" 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=428.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 5 and 428, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 5 and 428 into our formula, we get:

(5 + 428)/2 = 216.5

Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 428 is 216.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 216.5 and subtract 216.5 from 428 and compare the two numbers:

216.5 - 5 = 211.5
428 - 216.5 = 211.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 211.5 higher than 5 and 211.5 lower than 428. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 216.5 above is correct.
