When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 82?" 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=82.
To find the number halfway between 5 and 82, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 5 and 82 into our formula, we get:
(5 + 82)/2 = 43.5
Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 82 is 43.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 43.5 and subtract 43.5 from 82 and compare the two numbers:
43.5 - 5 = 38.5
82 - 43.5 = 38.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 38.5 higher than 5 and 38.5 lower than 82. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 43.5 above is correct.
