When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 76?" 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=76.
To find the number halfway between 5 and 76, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 5 and 76 into our formula, we get:
(5 + 76)/2 = 40.5
Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 76 is 40.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 40.5 and subtract 40.5 from 76 and compare the two numbers:
40.5 - 5 = 35.5
76 - 40.5 = 35.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 35.5 higher than 5 and 35.5 lower than 76. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 40.5 above is correct.
