First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 800 to 900 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 6 spaces along from 800. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 860
- Each space is (900 − 800) ÷ 10 = 10
- 800 + 6 × 10 = 860
2.A number line goes from 20 to 30 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 20. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 28
- Each space is (30 − 20) ÷ 5 = 2
- 20 + 4 × 2 = 28
3.A number line goes from 20 to 30 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 6 spaces along from 20. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 26
- Each space is (30 − 20) ÷ 10 = 1
- 20 + 6 × 1 = 26
4.A number line goes from 90 to 100 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 90. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 92
- Each space is (100 − 90) ÷ 10 = 1
- 90 + 2 × 1 = 92
5.A number line goes from 40 to 90 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 40. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 60
- Each space is (90 − 40) ÷ 10 = 5
- 40 + 4 × 5 = 60
6.A number line goes from 40 to 65 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 40. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 45
- Each space is (65 − 40) ÷ 5 = 5
- 40 + 1 × 5 = 45
7.A number line goes from 700 to 750 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 700. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 740
- Each space is (750 − 700) ÷ 5 = 10
- 700 + 4 × 10 = 740
8.A number line goes from 20 to 25 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 20. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 23
- Each space is (25 − 20) ÷ 5 = 1
- 20 + 3 × 1 = 23
9.A number line goes from 60 to 70 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 60. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 62
- Each space is (70 − 60) ÷ 5 = 2
- 60 + 1 × 2 = 62
10.A number line goes from 60 to 80 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 6 spaces along from 60. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 72
- Each space is (80 − 60) ÷ 10 = 2
- 60 + 6 × 2 = 72
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.
