First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 70 to 120 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 5 spaces along from 70. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 95
- Each space is (120 − 70) ÷ 10 = 5
- 70 + 5 × 5 = 95
2.A number line goes from 0 to 50 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 0. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 30
- Each space is (50 − 0) ÷ 5 = 10
- 0 + 3 × 10 = 30
3.A number line goes from 0 to 100 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 7 spaces along from 0. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 70
- Each space is (100 − 0) ÷ 10 = 10
- 0 + 7 × 10 = 70
4.A number line goes from 10 to 15 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 10. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 13
- Each space is (15 − 10) ÷ 5 = 1
- 10 + 3 × 1 = 13
5.A number line goes from 40 to 50 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 40. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 46
- Each space is (50 − 40) ÷ 5 = 2
- 40 + 3 × 2 = 46
6.A number line goes from 600 to 700 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 7 spaces along from 600. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 670
- Each space is (700 − 600) ÷ 10 = 10
- 600 + 7 × 10 = 670
7.A number line goes from 100 to 200 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 100. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 110
- Each space is (200 − 100) ÷ 10 = 10
- 100 + 1 × 10 = 110
8.A number line goes from 40 to 50 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 40. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 43
- Each space is (50 − 40) ÷ 10 = 1
- 40 + 3 × 1 = 43
9.A number line goes from 600 to 700 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 9 spaces along from 600. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 690
- Each space is (700 − 600) ÷ 10 = 10
- 600 + 9 × 10 = 690
10.A number line goes from 50 to 55 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 50. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 54
- Each space is (55 − 50) ÷ 5 = 1
- 50 + 4 × 1 = 54
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.
