Halfway Between 5 and 566

When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 566?" 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=566.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 5 and 566, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 5 and 566 into our formula, we get:

(5 + 566)/2 = 285.5

Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 566 is 285.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 285.5 and subtract 285.5 from 566 and compare the two numbers:

285.5 - 5 = 280.5
566 - 285.5 = 280.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 280.5 higher than 5 and 280.5 lower than 566. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 285.5 above is correct.
