Halfway Between 5 and 73

When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 73?" 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=73.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 5 and 73, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 5 and 73 into our formula, we get:

(5 + 73)/2 = 39

Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 73 is 39.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 39 and subtract 39 from 73 and compare the two numbers:

39 - 5 = 34
73 - 39 = 34

As you can see, the halfway number is 34 higher than 5 and 34 lower than 73. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 39 above is correct.
