Halfway Between 5 and 975

When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 975?" 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=975.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 5 and 975, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 5 and 975 into our formula, we get:

(5 + 975)/2 = 490

Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 975 is 490.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 490 and subtract 490 from 975 and compare the two numbers:

490 - 5 = 485
975 - 490 = 485

As you can see, the halfway number is 485 higher than 5 and 485 lower than 975. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 490 above is correct.
