First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 30 to 40 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 30. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 34
- Each space is (40 − 30) ÷ 5 = 2
- 30 + 2 × 2 = 34
2.A number line goes from 50 to 60 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 6 spaces along from 50. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 56
- Each space is (60 − 50) ÷ 10 = 1
- 50 + 6 × 1 = 56
3.A number line goes from 500 to 600 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 7 spaces along from 500. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 570
- Each space is (600 − 500) ÷ 10 = 10
- 500 + 7 × 10 = 570
4.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
5.A number line goes from 60 to 110 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 7 spaces along from 60. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 95
- Each space is (110 − 60) ÷ 10 = 5
- 60 + 7 × 5 = 95
6.A number line goes from 70 to 120 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 70. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 80
- Each space is (120 − 70) ÷ 10 = 5
- 70 + 2 × 5 = 80
7.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
8.A number line goes from 20 to 70 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 20. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 30
- Each space is (70 − 20) ÷ 10 = 5
- 20 + 2 × 5 = 30
9.A number line goes from 80 to 90 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 80. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 84
- Each space is (90 − 80) ÷ 5 = 2
- 80 + 2 × 2 = 84
10.A number line goes from 40 to 50 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 9 spaces along from 40. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 49
- Each space is (50 − 40) ÷ 10 = 1
- 40 + 9 × 1 = 49
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.
