First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 500 to 600 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 500. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 540
- Each space is (600 − 500) ÷ 10 = 10
- 500 + 4 × 10 = 540
2.A number line goes from 30 to 55 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 30. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 35
- Each space is (55 − 30) ÷ 5 = 5
- 30 + 1 × 5 = 35
3.A number line goes from 700 to 750 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 700. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 710
- Each space is (750 − 700) ÷ 5 = 10
- 700 + 1 × 10 = 710
4.A number line goes from 100 to 150 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 100. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 140
- Each space is (150 − 100) ÷ 5 = 10
- 100 + 4 × 10 = 140
5.A number line goes from 70 to 80 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 70. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 74
- Each space is (80 − 70) ÷ 5 = 2
- 70 + 2 × 2 = 74
6.A number line goes from 80 to 90 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 5 spaces along from 80. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 85
- Each space is (90 − 80) ÷ 10 = 1
- 80 + 5 × 1 = 85
7.A number line goes from 90 to 140 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 8 spaces along from 90. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 130
- Each space is (140 − 90) ÷ 10 = 5
- 90 + 8 × 5 = 130
8.A number line goes from 100 to 150 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 100. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 130
- Each space is (150 − 100) ÷ 5 = 10
- 100 + 3 × 10 = 130
9.A number line goes from 50 to 100 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 50. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 60
- Each space is (100 − 50) ÷ 10 = 5
- 50 + 2 × 5 = 60
10.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
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.
