First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 0 to 10 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 0. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 8
- Each space is (10 − 0) ÷ 5 = 2
- 0 + 4 × 2 = 8
2.A number line goes from 30 to 40 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 30. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 31
- Each space is (40 − 30) ÷ 10 = 1
- 30 + 1 × 1 = 31
3.A number line goes from 0 to 25 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 0. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 20
- Each space is (25 − 0) ÷ 5 = 5
- 0 + 4 × 5 = 20
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 80 to 90 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 80. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 83
- Each space is (90 − 80) ÷ 10 = 1
- 80 + 3 × 1 = 83
6.A number line goes from 20 to 30 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 8 spaces along from 20. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 28
- Each space is (30 − 20) ÷ 10 = 1
- 20 + 8 × 1 = 28
7.A number line goes from 90 to 110 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 90. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 96
- Each space is (110 − 90) ÷ 10 = 2
- 90 + 3 × 2 = 96
8.A number line goes from 0 to 100 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 0. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 10
- Each space is (100 − 0) ÷ 10 = 10
- 0 + 1 × 10 = 10
9.A number line goes from 70 to 95 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 70. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 75
- Each space is (95 − 70) ÷ 5 = 5
- 70 + 1 × 5 = 75
10.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
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.
