Halfway Between 5 and 600

When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 600?" 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=600.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 5 and 600, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 5 and 600 into our formula, we get:

(5 + 600)/2 = 302.5

Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 600 is 302.5.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 302.5 and subtract 302.5 from 600 and compare the two numbers:

302.5 - 5 = 297.5
600 - 302.5 = 297.5

As you can see, the halfway number is 297.5 higher than 5 and 297.5 lower than 600. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 302.5 above is correct.
