When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 423?" 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=423.

To find the number halfway between 5 and 423, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 5 and 423 into our formula, we get:
(5 + 423)/2 = 214
Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 423 is 214.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 214 and subtract 214 from 423 and compare the two numbers:
214 - 5 = 209
423 - 214 = 209
As you can see, the halfway number is 209 higher than 5 and 209 lower than 423. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 214 above is correct.
