Year 4 Number Lines Worksheet — Level 2 — Practice Set 4 — Answers
First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 9,000 to 11,500 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 9,000. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 9,500
- Each space is (11,500 − 9,000) ÷ 10 = 250
- 9,000 + 2 × 250 = 9,500
2.A number line goes from 700 to 1,700 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 8 spaces along from 700. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 1,500
- Each space is (1,700 − 700) ÷ 10 = 100
- 700 + 8 × 100 = 1,500
3.What number is halfway between 290 and 670?
Answer: 480
- 670 − 290 = 380; half of that is 190
- 290 + 190 = 480
4.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
5.A number line goes from 700 to 950 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 5 spaces along from 700. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 825
- Each space is (950 − 700) ÷ 10 = 25
- 700 + 5 × 25 = 825
6.What number is halfway between 300 and 480?
Answer: 390
- 480 − 300 = 180; half of that is 90
- 300 + 90 = 390
7.A number line goes from 700 to 800 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 700. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 775
- Each space is (800 − 700) ÷ 4 = 25
- 700 + 3 × 25 = 775
8.A number line goes from 400 to 650 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 400. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 600
- Each space is (650 − 400) ÷ 5 = 50
- 400 + 4 × 50 = 600
9.What number is halfway between 130 and 570?
Answer: 350
- 570 − 130 = 440; half of that is 220
- 130 + 220 = 350
10.A number line goes from 800 to 1,050 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 800. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 900
- Each space is (1,050 − 800) ÷ 5 = 50
- 800 + 2 × 50 = 900
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.
