Halfway Between 5 and 458

When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 458?" 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=458.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 5 and 458, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 5 and 458 into our formula, we get:

(5 + 458)/2 = 231.5

Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 458 is 231.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 231.5 and subtract 231.5 from 458 and compare the two numbers:

231.5 - 5 = 226.5
458 - 231.5 = 226.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 226.5 higher than 5 and 226.5 lower than 458. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 231.5 above is correct.
