Halfway Between 5 and 977

When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 977?" 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=977.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 5 and 977, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 5 and 977 into our formula, we get:

(5 + 977)/2 = 491

Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 977 is 491.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 491 and subtract 491 from 977 and compare the two numbers:

491 - 5 = 486
977 - 491 = 486

As you can see, the halfway number is 486 higher than 5 and 486 lower than 977. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 491 above is correct.
