You can rephrase this question as an equation. If you call the number "n", then we can say:

(n + 7) / 2 = 5

Then we can solve it from there:

(n + 7) / 2 = 5

Multiply both sides by two:

2 * (n + 7) / 2 = 5 * 2

n + 7 = 10

Now subtract seven from both sides:

n + 7 - 7 = 10 - 7

n = 3

So the answer is three.
