When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 59?" 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=59.

To find the number halfway between 5 and 59, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 5 and 59 into our formula, we get:
(5 + 59)/2 = 32
Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 59 is 32.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 32 and subtract 32 from 59 and compare the two numbers:
32 - 5 = 27
59 - 32 = 27
As you can see, the halfway number is 27 higher than 5 and 27 lower than 59. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 32 above is correct.
