First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 2.7 to 2.8 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 2.7. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 2.78
- Each space is (2.8 − 2.7) ÷ 5 = 0.02
- 2.7 + 4 × 0.02 = 2.78
2.A number line goes from 1 to 3.5 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 1. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 1.5
- Each space is (3.5 − 1) ÷ 5 = 0.5
- 1 + 1 × 0.5 = 1.5
3.A number line goes from 3 to 4 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 3. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction or mixed number.
Answer: 3
- Each space is
- 2 spaces = =
4.A number line goes from 0.9 to 1.4 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 9 spaces along from 0.9. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 1.35
- Each space is (1.4 − 0.9) ÷ 10 = 0.05
- 0.9 + 9 × 0.05 = 1.35
5.A number line goes from 8.6 to 8.65 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 8.6. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 8.63
- Each space is (8.65 − 8.6) ÷ 5 = 0.01
- 8.6 + 3 × 0.01 = 8.63
6.A number line goes from 1 to 2 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 5 spaces along from 1. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction or mixed number.
Answer: 1
- Each space is
- 5 spaces = =
7.A number line goes from 3.9 to 4.1 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 3.9. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 4.05
- Each space is (4.1 − 3.9) ÷ 4 = 0.05
- 3.9 + 3 × 0.05 = 4.05
8.A number line goes from 7 to 7.8 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 7. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 7.6
- Each space is (7.8 − 7) ÷ 4 = 0.2
- 7 + 3 × 0.2 = 7.6
9.A number line goes from 2 to 3 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 2. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction or mixed number.
Answer: 2
- Each space is
- 3 spaces =
10.A number line goes from 3 to 3.5 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 3. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 3.1
- Each space is (3.5 − 3) ÷ 5 = 0.1
- 3 + 1 × 0.1 = 3.1
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.
