When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 212?" 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=212.
To find the number halfway between 5 and 212, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 5 and 212 into our formula, we get:
(5 + 212)/2 = 108.5
Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 212 is 108.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 108.5 and subtract 108.5 from 212 and compare the two numbers:
108.5 - 5 = 103.5
212 - 108.5 = 103.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 103.5 higher than 5 and 103.5 lower than 212. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 108.5 above is correct.
