Using the simple statement below you can get the first date of the week
(according to ISO standard). Then you can either add 6 to get the last
day of the week and use ranges for your task or using any 'pivot'-approach
(you need 7 rows) you can get all 7 days/dates of the week.

DEFINE yr=1998
DEFINE wk=5
SELECT TRUNC(TO_DATE('2711&yr', 'DDMMYYYY'), 'IYYY') + (&wk - 1) * 7     AS date_from
     , TRUNC(TO_DATE('2711&yr', 'DDMMYYYY'), 'IYYY') + (&wk - 1) * 7 + 6 AS date_to
  FROM sys.dual
/

Ranges can be used in case one does not have a possibility to use FBI, for
example.

The statement below is a bit more complicated. This one does a simple
check and returns nothing in case week number is out of range.

DEFINE yr=1998
DEFINE wk=53
SELECT TRUNC(TO_DATE('2711&yr', 'DDMMYYYY'), 'IYYY') + (&wk - 1) * 7     AS date_from
     , TRUNC(TO_DATE('2711&yr', 'DDMMYYYY'), 'IYYY') + (&wk - 1) * 7 + 6 AS date_to
  FROM sys.dual
 WHERE TO_NUMBER(
         TO_CHAR(
           TO_DATE('3112&yr', 'DDMMYYYY')
         + DECODE(TO_CHAR(TO_DATE('3112&yr', 'DDMMYYYY'), 'IW')
                 , '01', -7
                       ,  0
           )
         , 'IW'
         )
       ) >= &wk
   AND &wk > 0
/

HTH[, if I did not make a mistake].
