Halfway Between 5 and 520

When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 520?" 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=520.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 5 and 520, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 5 and 520 into our formula, we get:

(5 + 520)/2 = 262.5

Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 520 is 262.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 262.5 and subtract 262.5 from 520 and compare the two numbers:

262.5 - 5 = 257.5
520 - 262.5 = 257.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 257.5 higher than 5 and 257.5 lower than 520. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 262.5 above is correct.
