First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 100 to 200 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 100. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 120
- Each space is (200 − 100) ÷ 5 = 20
- 100 + 1 × 20 = 120
2.A number line goes from 700 to 1,200 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 7 spaces along from 700. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 1,050
- Each space is (1,200 − 700) ÷ 10 = 50
- 700 + 7 × 50 = 1,050
3.What number is halfway between 120 and 580?
Answer: 350
- 580 − 120 = 460; half of that is 230
- 120 + 230 = 350
4.A number line goes from 1,000 to 2,250 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 1,000. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 1,250
- Each space is (2,250 − 1,000) ÷ 5 = 250
- 1,000 + 1 × 250 = 1,250
5.A number line goes from 9,000 to 11,500 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 6 spaces along from 9,000. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 10,500
- Each space is (11,500 − 9,000) ÷ 10 = 250
- 9,000 + 6 × 250 = 10,500
6.What number is halfway between 140 and 560?
Answer: 350
- 560 − 140 = 420; half of that is 210
- 140 + 210 = 350
7.A number line goes from 200 to 325 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 200. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 300
- Each space is (325 − 200) ÷ 5 = 25
- 200 + 4 × 25 = 300
8.A number line goes from 300 to 500 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 300. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 350
- Each space is (500 − 300) ÷ 4 = 50
- 300 + 1 × 50 = 350
9.What number is halfway between 240 and 640?
Answer: 440
- 640 − 240 = 400; half of that is 200
- 240 + 200 = 440
10.A number line goes from 400 to 600 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 6 spaces along from 400. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 520
- Each space is (600 − 400) ÷ 10 = 20
- 400 + 6 × 20 = 520
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:
