First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 90 to 95 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 90. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 92
- Each space is (95 − 90) ÷ 5 = 1
- 90 + 2 × 1 = 92
2.A number line goes from 60 to 110 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 6 spaces along from 60. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 90
- Each space is (110 − 60) ÷ 10 = 5
- 60 + 6 × 5 = 90
3.A number line goes from 10 to 60 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 9 spaces along from 10. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 55
- Each space is (60 − 10) ÷ 10 = 5
- 10 + 9 × 5 = 55
4.A number line goes from 40 to 50 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 40. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 48
- Each space is (50 − 40) ÷ 5 = 2
- 40 + 4 × 2 = 48
5.A number line goes from 20 to 25 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 20. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 22
- Each space is (25 − 20) ÷ 5 = 1
- 20 + 2 × 1 = 22
6.A number line goes from 80 to 100 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 80. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 88
- Each space is (100 − 80) ÷ 10 = 2
- 80 + 4 × 2 = 88
7.A number line goes from 20 to 40 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 20. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 22
- Each space is (40 − 20) ÷ 10 = 2
- 20 + 1 × 2 = 22
8.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
9.A number line goes from 60 to 70 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 7 spaces along from 60. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 67
- Each space is (70 − 60) ÷ 10 = 1
- 60 + 7 × 1 = 67
10.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
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.
