When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 297?" 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=297.

To find the number halfway between 5 and 297, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 5 and 297 into our formula, we get:
(5 + 297)/2 = 151
Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 297 is 151.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 151 and subtract 151 from 297 and compare the two numbers:
151 - 5 = 146
297 - 151 = 146
As you can see, the halfway number is 146 higher than 5 and 146 lower than 297. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 151 above is correct.
