When you ask "What number is halfway between 97 and 120?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=97 and Y=120.

To find the number halfway between 97 and 120, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 97 and 120 into our formula, we get:
(97 + 120)/2 = 108.5
Thus, the number halfway between 97 and 120 is 108.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 97 from 108.5 and subtract 108.5 from 120 and compare the two numbers:
108.5 - 97 = 11.5
120 - 108.5 = 11.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 11.5 higher than 97 and 11.5 lower than 120. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 108.5 above is correct.
