When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 283?" 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=283.
To find the number halfway between 5 and 283, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 5 and 283 into our formula, we get:
(5 + 283)/2 = 144
Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 283 is 144.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 144 and subtract 144 from 283 and compare the two numbers:
144 - 5 = 139
283 - 144 = 139
As you can see, the halfway number is 139 higher than 5 and 139 lower than 283. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 144 above is correct.
