Halfway Between 5 and 517

When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 517?" 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=517.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 5 and 517, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 5 and 517 into our formula, we get:

(5 + 517)/2 = 261

Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 517 is 261.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 261 and subtract 261 from 517 and compare the two numbers:

261 - 5 = 256
517 - 261 = 256

As you can see, the halfway number is 256 higher than 5 and 256 lower than 517. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 261 above is correct.
