Year 4 Number Lines Worksheet — Level 3 — Practice Set 3 — Answers
First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 3.5 to 3.58 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 3.5. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 3.56
- Each space is (3.58 − 3.5) ÷ 4 = 0.02
- 3.5 + 3 × 0.02 = 3.56
2.A number line goes from 4.8 to 5 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 6 spaces along from 4.8. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 4.92
- Each space is (5 − 4.8) ÷ 10 = 0.02
- 4.8 + 6 × 0.02 = 4.92
3.A number line goes from 4 to 5 and is split into 3 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 4. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction or mixed number.
Answer: 4
- Each space is
- 1 spaces =
4.A number line goes from 4 to 5 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 4. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 4.4
- Each space is (5 − 4) ÷ 5 = 0.2
- 4 + 2 × 0.2 = 4.4
5.A number line goes from 6.6 to 6.65 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 6.6. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 6.63
- Each space is (6.65 − 6.6) ÷ 5 = 0.01
- 6.6 + 3 × 0.01 = 6.63
6.A number line goes from 4 to 5 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 4. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction or mixed number.
Answer: 4
- Each space is
- 2 spaces = =
7.A number line goes from 4.6 to 4.65 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 4.6. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 4.64
- Each space is (4.65 − 4.6) ÷ 5 = 0.01
- 4.6 + 4 × 0.01 = 4.64
8.A number line goes from 3.4 to 3.65 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 3.4. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 3.6
- Each space is (3.65 − 3.4) ÷ 5 = 0.05
- 3.4 + 4 × 0.05 = 3.6
9.A number line goes from 1 to 2 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 1. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction or mixed number.
Answer: 1
- Each space is
- 1 spaces =
10.A number line goes from 8 to 9 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 8. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 8.6
- Each space is (9 − 8) ÷ 5 = 0.2
- 8 + 3 × 0.2 = 8.6
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.
