Halfway Between 5 and 514

When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 514?" 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=514.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 5 and 514, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 5 and 514 into our formula, we get:

(5 + 514)/2 = 259.5

Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 514 is 259.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 259.5 and subtract 259.5 from 514 and compare the two numbers:

259.5 - 5 = 254.5
514 - 259.5 = 254.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 254.5 higher than 5 and 254.5 lower than 514. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 259.5 above is correct.
