  2. 8.9 + 3 × 0.05 = 9.05
2.A number line goes from 0.3 to 0.4 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 5 spaces along from 0.3. What number does the arrow point to?

Answer: 0.35

  1. Each space is (0.4 − 0.3) ÷ 10 = 0.01
  2. 0.3 + 5 × 0.01 = 0.35
3.A number line goes from 1 to 2 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 9 spaces along from 1. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction or mixed number.

Answer: 1

  1. Each space is
  2. 9 spaces =
4.A number line goes from 3.5 to 3.54 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 3.5. What number does the arrow point to?

  2. 3.5 + 2 × 0.01 = 3.52
5.A number line goes from 4 to 4.08 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 4. What number does the arrow point to?

Answer: 4.04

  1. Each space is (4.08 − 4) ÷ 4 = 0.02
  2. 4 + 2 × 0.02 = 4.04
