First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 0 to 50 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 0. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 10
- Each space is (50 − 0) ÷ 5 = 10
- 0 + 1 × 10 = 10
2.A number line goes from 600 to 650 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 600. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 610
- Each space is (650 − 600) ÷ 5 = 10
- 600 + 1 × 10 = 610
3.A number line goes from 500 to 600 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 500. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 510
- Each space is (600 − 500) ÷ 10 = 10
- 500 + 1 × 10 = 510
4.A number line goes from 20 to 30 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 9 spaces along from 20. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 29
- Each space is (30 − 20) ÷ 10 = 1
- 20 + 9 × 1 = 29
5.A number line goes from 600 to 700 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 9 spaces along from 600. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 690
- Each space is (700 − 600) ÷ 10 = 10
- 600 + 9 × 10 = 690
6.A number line goes from 80 to 85 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 80. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 81
- Each space is (85 − 80) ÷ 5 = 1
- 80 + 1 × 1 = 81
7.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
8.A number line goes from 40 to 50 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 6 spaces along from 40. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 46
- Each space is (50 − 40) ÷ 10 = 1
- 40 + 6 × 1 = 46
9.A number line goes from 0 to 10 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 0. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 4
- Each space is (10 − 0) ÷ 10 = 1
- 0 + 4 × 1 = 4
10.A number line goes from 40 to 90 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 7 spaces along from 40. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 75
- Each space is (90 − 40) ÷ 10 = 5
- 40 + 7 × 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.
