First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 3 to 5 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 3. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 4
- Each space is (5 − 3) ÷ 4 = 0.5
- 3 + 2 × 0.5 = 4
2.A number line goes from 8 to 13 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 8. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 9.5
- Each space is (13 − 8) ÷ 10 = 0.5
- 8 + 3 × 0.5 = 9.5
3.A number line goes from 0 to 1 and is split into 6 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 0. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction.
Answer:
- Each space is
- 4 spaces = =
4.A number line goes from 4.4 to 4.5 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 6 spaces along from 4.4. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 4.46
- Each space is (4.5 − 4.4) ÷ 10 = 0.01
- 4.4 + 6 × 0.01 = 4.46
5.A number line goes from 6.5 to 6.75 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 6.5. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 6.65
- Each space is (6.75 − 6.5) ÷ 5 = 0.05
- 6.5 + 3 × 0.05 = 6.65
6.A number line goes from 0 to 1 and is split into 8 equal spaces. The arrow is 5 spaces along from 0. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction.
Answer:
- Each space is
- 5 spaces =
7.A number line goes from 5.9 to 6.4 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 5.9. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 6.05
- Each space is (6.4 − 5.9) ÷ 10 = 0.05
- 5.9 + 3 × 0.05 = 6.05
8.A number line goes from 8 to 13 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 5 spaces along from 8. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 10.5
- Each space is (13 − 8) ÷ 10 = 0.5
- 8 + 5 × 0.5 = 10.5
9.A number line goes from 2 to 3 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 6 spaces along from 2. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction or mixed number.
Answer: 2
- Each space is
- 6 spaces = =
10.A number line goes from 1.4 to 1.5 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 1.4. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 1.48
- Each space is (1.5 − 1.4) ÷ 5 = 0.02
- 1.4 + 4 × 0.02 = 1.48
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:
