When you ask "What number is halfway between 5 and 853?" 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=853.

To find the number halfway between 5 and 853, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 5 and 853 into our formula, we get:
(5 + 853)/2 = 429
Thus, the number halfway between 5 and 853 is 429.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 5 from 429 and subtract 429 from 853 and compare the two numbers:
429 - 5 = 424
853 - 429 = 424
As you can see, the halfway number is 424 higher than 5 and 424 lower than 853. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 429 above is correct.
