Given series:$

4, 13.5, 62.5, 171.5, ? , 1098.5$

Number in a series is half of cube of prime numbers starting from 1,$

23 = 8 = 8/2 = 4$

33 = 27 = 27/2 = 13.5$

53 = 125 = 125/2 = 62.5$

73 = 343 = 343/2 = 171.5$

113 = 1331 = 1331/2 = 665.5$

133 = 2197 = 2197/2 = 1098.5$

Thus, answer is 665.5.$
