When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 851?" 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=851.

To find the number halfway between 5 and 851, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 5 and 851 into our formula, we get:
(5 + 851)/2 = 428
Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 851 is 428.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 428 and subtract 428 from 851 and compare the two numbers:
428 - 5 = 423
851 - 428 = 423
As you can see, the halfway number is 423 higher than 5 and 423 lower than 851. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 428 above is correct.
