Halfway Between 5 and 993

When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 993?" 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=993.

Halfway Between Line

To find the number halfway between 5 and 993, we use the following formula:

(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between

When we enter 5 and 993 into our formula, we get:

(5 + 993)/2 = 499

Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 993 is 499.

To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 499 and subtract 499 from 993 and compare the two numbers:

499 - 5 = 494
993 - 499 = 494

As you can see, the halfway number is 494 higher than 5 and 494 lower than 993. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 499 above is correct.
