When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 70?" 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=70.
To find the number halfway between 5 and 70, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 5 and 70 into our formula, we get:
(5 + 70)/2 = 37.5
Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 70 is 37.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 37.5 and subtract 37.5 from 70 and compare the two numbers:
37.5 - 5 = 32.5
70 - 37.5 = 32.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 32.5 higher than 5 and 32.5 lower than 70. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 37.5 above is correct.
