answer is 7
my method-
first find the lowest term=270+x/2=153
x=36
now find the number od terms 270 - 36/18 +1=14
as the number os terms is even the median or average will be 7th +8th term /2.this concludes the 7th term is less than 153
so there are total 7 terms less than 153 and 7 terms greater than 153.
