Halfway Between 5 and 49

When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 49?" 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=49.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 5 and 49, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 5 and 49 into our formula, we get:

(5 + 49)/2 = 27

Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 49 is 27.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 27 and subtract 27 from 49 and compare the two numbers:

27 - 5 = 22
49 - 27 = 22

As you can see, the halfway number is 22 higher than 5 and 22 lower than 49. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 27 above is correct.
