Halfway Between 5 and 89

When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 89?" 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=89.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 5 and 89, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 5 and 89 into our formula, we get:

(5 + 89)/2 = 47

Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 89 is 47.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 47 and subtract 47 from 89 and compare the two numbers:

47 - 5 = 42
89 - 47 = 42

As you can see, the halfway number is 42 higher than 5 and 42 lower than 89. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 47 above is correct.
