First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 7 to 8 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 7. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 7.4
- Each space is (8 − 7) ÷ 10 = 0.1
- 7 + 4 × 0.1 = 7.4
2.A number line goes from 4 to 6 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 4. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 4.5
- Each space is (6 − 4) ÷ 4 = 0.5
- 4 + 1 × 0.5 = 4.5
3.A number line goes from 2 to 3 and is split into 6 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 2. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction or mixed number.
Answer: 2
- Each space is
- 2 spaces = =
4.A number line goes from 3.9 to 4.15 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 3.9. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 3.95
- Each space is (4.15 − 3.9) ÷ 5 = 0.05
- 3.9 + 1 × 0.05 = 3.95
5.A number line goes from 6.7 to 6.78 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 6.7. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 6.76
- Each space is (6.78 − 6.7) ÷ 4 = 0.02
- 6.7 + 3 × 0.02 = 6.76
6.A number line goes from 0 to 1 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 8 spaces along from 0. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction.
Answer:
- Each space is
- 8 spaces = =
7.A number line goes from 7 to 9 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 8 spaces along from 7. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 8.6
- Each space is (9 − 7) ÷ 10 = 0.2
- 7 + 8 × 0.2 = 8.6
8.A number line goes from 9 to 9.5 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 9. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 9.3
- Each space is (9.5 − 9) ÷ 5 = 0.1
- 9 + 3 × 0.1 = 9.3
9.A number line goes from 1 to 2 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 1. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction or mixed number.
Answer: 1
- Each space is
- 4 spaces =
10.A number line goes from 9.8 to 9.9 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 9.8. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 9.82
- Each space is (9.9 − 9.8) ÷ 5 = 0.02
- 9.8 + 1 × 0.02 = 9.82
Marking tips
- Give credit for correct method even when the final answer slips — the working shows where the thinking went right.
- For open-ended tasks, use the success criteria as a checklist rather than looking for one "right" answer.
- Celebrate what went well first, then pick one thing to work on next.
Great work. Here's what to try next:
