When you ask "What number is halfway between 97 and 500?" 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=500.
To find the number halfway between 97 and 500, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 97 and 500 into our formula, we get:
(97 + 500)/2 = 298.5
Thus, the number halfway between 97 and 500 is 298.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 97 from 298.5 and subtract 298.5 from 500 and compare the two numbers:
298.5 - 97 = 201.5
500 - 298.5 = 201.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 201.5 higher than 97 and 201.5 lower than 500. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 298.5 above is correct.
