First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 30 to 50 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 5 spaces along from 30. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 40
- Each space is (50 − 30) ÷ 10 = 2
- 30 + 5 × 2 = 40
2.A number line goes from 50 to 75 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 50. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 65
- Each space is (75 − 50) ÷ 5 = 5
- 50 + 3 × 5 = 65
3.A number line goes from 80 to 130 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 80. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 95
- Each space is (130 − 80) ÷ 10 = 5
- 80 + 3 × 5 = 95
4.A number line goes from 20 to 30 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 20. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 24
- Each space is (30 − 20) ÷ 5 = 2
- 20 + 2 × 2 = 24
5.A number line goes from 20 to 40 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 7 spaces along from 20. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 34
- Each space is (40 − 20) ÷ 10 = 2
- 20 + 7 × 2 = 34
6.A number line goes from 100 to 200 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 6 spaces along from 100. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 160
- Each space is (200 − 100) ÷ 10 = 10
- 100 + 6 × 10 = 160
7.A number line goes from 0 to 50 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 0. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 10
- Each space is (50 − 0) ÷ 5 = 10
- 0 + 1 × 10 = 10
8.A number line goes from 80 to 100 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 8 spaces along from 80. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 96
- Each space is (100 − 80) ÷ 10 = 2
- 80 + 8 × 2 = 96
9.A number line goes from 80 to 105 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 80. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 85
- Each space is (105 − 80) ÷ 5 = 5
- 80 + 1 × 5 = 85
10.A number line goes from 400 to 450 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 400. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 410
- Each space is (450 − 400) ÷ 5 = 10
- 400 + 1 × 10 = 410
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.
