First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 60 to 80 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 60. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 62
- Each space is (80 − 60) ÷ 10 = 2
- 60 + 1 × 2 = 62
2.A number line goes from 50 to 70 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 9 spaces along from 50. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 68
- Each space is (70 − 50) ÷ 10 = 2
- 50 + 9 × 2 = 68
3.A number line goes from 70 to 80 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 70. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 72
- Each space is (80 − 70) ÷ 5 = 2
- 70 + 1 × 2 = 72
4.A number line goes from 0 to 10 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 0. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 2
- Each space is (10 − 0) ÷ 5 = 2
- 0 + 1 × 2 = 2
5.A number line goes from 10 to 30 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 10. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 16
- Each space is (30 − 10) ÷ 10 = 2
- 10 + 3 × 2 = 16
6.A number line goes from 30 to 40 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 30. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 32
- Each space is (40 − 30) ÷ 5 = 2
- 30 + 1 × 2 = 32
7.A number line goes from 0 to 20 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 5 spaces along from 0. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 10
- Each space is (20 − 0) ÷ 10 = 2
- 0 + 5 × 2 = 10
8.A number line goes from 800 to 900 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 8 spaces along from 800. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 880
- Each space is (900 − 800) ÷ 10 = 10
- 800 + 8 × 10 = 880
9.A number line goes from 70 to 120 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 70. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 75
- Each space is (120 − 70) ÷ 10 = 5
- 70 + 1 × 5 = 75
10.A number line goes from 40 to 90 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 40. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 45
- Each space is (90 − 40) ÷ 10 = 5
- 40 + 1 × 5 = 45
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.
