Year 4 Number Lines Worksheet — Level 3 — Answers
First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 0 to 0.5 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 0. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 0.3
- Each space is (0.5 − 0) ÷ 5 = 0.1
- 0 + 3 × 0.1 = 0.3
2.A number line goes from 3 to 5.5 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 3. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 5
- Each space is (5.5 − 3) ÷ 5 = 0.5
- 3 + 4 × 0.5 = 5
3.A number line goes from 1 to 2 and is split into 6 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 1. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction or mixed number.
Answer: 1
- Each space is
- 3 spaces = =
4.A number line goes from 2.3 to 2.35 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 2.3. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 2.32
- Each space is (2.35 − 2.3) ÷ 5 = 0.01
- 2.3 + 2 × 0.01 = 2.32
5.A number line goes from 0.8 to 0.9 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 0.8. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 0.84
- Each space is (0.9 − 0.8) ÷ 5 = 0.02
- 0.8 + 2 × 0.02 = 0.84
6.A number line goes from 4 to 5 and is split into 3 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 4. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction or mixed number.
Answer: 4
- Each space is

7.A number line goes from 7 to 7.8 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 7. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 7.4
- Each space is (7.8 − 7) ÷ 4 = 0.2
- 7 + 2 × 0.2 = 7.4
8.A number line goes from 6 to 6.8 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 6. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 6.2
- Each space is (6.8 − 6) ÷ 4 = 0.2
- 6 + 1 × 0.2 = 6.2
9.A number line goes from 1 to 2 and is split into 6 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

- 3 + 6 × 0.1 = 3.6
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:
