First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 80 to 100 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 80. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 88
- Each space is (100 − 80) ÷ 10 = 2
- 80 + 4 × 2 = 88
2.A number line goes from 900 to 950 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 900. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 930
- Each space is (950 − 900) ÷ 5 = 10
- 900 + 3 × 10 = 930
3.A number line goes from 70 to 80 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 70. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 72
- Each space is (80 − 70) ÷ 10 = 1
- 70 + 2 × 1 = 72
4.A number line goes from 50 to 60 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 50. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 52
- Each space is (60 − 50) ÷ 5 = 2
- 50 + 1 × 2 = 52
5.A number line goes from 90 to 110 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 6 spaces along from 90. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 102
- Each space is (110 − 90) ÷ 10 = 2
- 90 + 6 × 2 = 102
6.A number line goes from 40 to 90 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 40. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 45
- Each space is (90 − 40) ÷ 10 = 5
- 40 + 1 × 5 = 45
7.A number line goes from 30 to 55 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 30. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 40
- Each space is (55 − 30) ÷ 5 = 5
- 30 + 2 × 5 = 40
8.A number line goes from 80 to 90 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 80. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 82
- Each space is (90 − 80) ÷ 10 = 1
- 80 + 2 × 1 = 82
9.A number line goes from 800 to 900 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 9 spaces along from 800. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 890
- Each space is (900 − 800) ÷ 10 = 10
- 800 + 9 × 10 = 890
10.A number line goes from 700 to 750 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 700. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 710
- Each space is (750 − 700) ÷ 5 = 10
- 700 + 1 × 10 = 710
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.
