Year 5 Number Lines Worksheet — Level 1 — Practice Set 4 — Answers
First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 700 to 750 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 700. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 730
- Each space is (750 − 700) ÷ 5 = 10
- 700 + 3 × 10 = 730
2.A number line goes from 30 to 35 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 30. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 34
- Each space is (35 − 30) ÷ 5 = 1
- 30 + 4 × 1 = 34
3.A number line goes from 60 to 85 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 60. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 80
- Each space is (85 − 60) ÷ 5 = 5
- 60 + 4 × 5 = 80
4.A number line goes from 0 to 50 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 0. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 5
- Each space is (50 − 0) ÷ 10 = 5
- 0 + 1 × 5 = 5
5.A number line goes from 0 to 100 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 0. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 20
- Each space is (100 − 0) ÷ 10 = 10
- 0 + 2 × 10 = 20
6.A number line goes from 80 to 90 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 80. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 82
- Each space is (90 − 80) ÷ 10 = 1
- 80 + 2 × 1 = 82
7.A number line goes from 60 to 110 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 60. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 80
- Each space is (110 − 60) ÷ 10 = 5
- 60 + 4 × 5 = 80
8.A number line goes from 80 to 90 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 80. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 86
- Each space is (90 − 80) ÷ 5 = 2
- 80 + 3 × 2 = 86
9.A number line goes from 20 to 70 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 6 spaces along from 20. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 50
- Each space is (70 − 20) ÷ 10 = 5
- 20 + 6 × 5 = 50
10.A number line goes from 70 to 90 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 5 spaces along from 70. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 80
- Each space is (90 − 70) ÷ 10 = 2
- 70 + 5 × 2 = 80
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.
