Halfway Between 5 and 58

When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 58?" 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=58.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 5 and 58, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 5 and 58 into our formula, we get:

(5 + 58)/2 = 31.5

Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 58 is 31.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 31.5 and subtract 31.5 from 58 and compare the two numbers:

31.5 - 5 = 26.5
58 - 31.5 = 26.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 26.5 higher than 5 and 26.5 lower than 58. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 31.5 above is correct.
