Year 4 Number Lines Worksheet — Level 3 — Answers
First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 5 to 5.2 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 5. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 5.05
- Each space is (5.2 − 5) ÷ 4 = 0.05
- 5 + 1 × 0.05 = 5.05
2.A number line goes from 6 to 7 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 7 spaces along from 6. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 6.7
- Each space is (7 − 6) ÷ 10 = 0.1
- 6 + 7 × 0.1 = 6.7
3.A number line goes from 3 to 4 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 3. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction or mixed number.
Answer: 3
- Each space is
- 3 spaces =
4.A number line goes from 2.9 to 2.98 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 2.9. What number does the arrow point to?

- Each space is (2.98 − 2.9) ÷ 4 = 0.02
- 2.9 + 1 × 0.02 = 2.92
5.A number line goes from 9 to 9.5 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 5 spaces along from 9. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 9.25
- Each space is (9.5 − 9) ÷ 10 = 0.05
- 9 + 5 × 0.05 = 9.25

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.
