First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 700 to 800 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 700. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 720
- Each space is (800 − 700) ÷ 5 = 20
- 700 + 1 × 20 = 720
2.A number line goes from 3,000 to 5,500 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 7 spaces along from 3,000. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 4,750
- Each space is (5,500 − 3,000) ÷ 10 = 250
- 3,000 + 7 × 250 = 4,750
3.What number is halfway between 160 and 640?
Answer: 400
- 640 − 160 = 480; half of that is 240
- 160 + 240 = 400
4.A number line goes from 300 to 380 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 300. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 360
- Each space is (380 − 300) ÷ 4 = 20
- 300 + 3 × 20 = 360
5.A number line goes from 700 to 1,100 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 700. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 1,000
- Each space is (1,100 − 700) ÷ 4 = 100
- 700 + 3 × 100 = 1,000
6.What number is halfway between 220 and 340?
Answer: 280
- 340 − 220 = 120; half of that is 60
- 220 + 60 = 280
7.A number line goes from 5,000 to 6,250 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 5,000. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 5,750
- Each space is (6,250 − 5,000) ÷ 5 = 250
- 5,000 + 3 × 250 = 5,750
8.A number line goes from 0 to 80 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 0. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 20
- Each space is (80 − 0) ÷ 4 = 20
- 0 + 1 × 20 = 20
9.What number is halfway between 40 and 480?
Answer: 260
- 480 − 40 = 440; half of that is 220
- 40 + 220 = 260
10.A number line goes from 1,000 to 2,250 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 1,000. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 2,000
- Each space is (2,250 − 1,000) ÷ 5 = 250
- 1,000 + 4 × 250 = 2,000
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.
