First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 70 to 75 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 70. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 74
- Each space is (75 − 70) ÷ 5 = 1
- 70 + 4 × 1 = 74
2.A number line goes from 50 to 70 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 50. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 58
- Each space is (70 − 50) ÷ 10 = 2
- 50 + 4 × 2 = 58
3.A number line goes from 10 to 30 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 10. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 12
- Each space is (30 − 10) ÷ 10 = 2
- 10 + 1 × 2 = 12
4.A number line goes from 600 to 700 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 600. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 630
- Each space is (700 − 600) ÷ 10 = 10
- 600 + 3 × 10 = 630
5.A number line goes from 700 to 750 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 700. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 740
- Each space is (750 − 700) ÷ 5 = 10
- 700 + 4 × 10 = 740
6.A number line goes from 70 to 90 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 8 spaces along from 70. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 86
- Each space is (90 − 70) ÷ 10 = 2
- 70 + 8 × 2 = 86
7.A number line goes from 30 to 80 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 30. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 45
- Each space is (80 − 30) ÷ 10 = 5
- 30 + 3 × 5 = 45
8.A number line goes from 60 to 110 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 9 spaces along from 60. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 105
- Each space is (110 − 60) ÷ 10 = 5
- 60 + 9 × 5 = 105
9.A number line goes from 300 to 350 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 300. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 310
- Each space is (350 − 300) ÷ 5 = 10
- 300 + 1 × 10 = 310
10.A number line goes from 40 to 60 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 9 spaces along from 40. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 58
- Each space is (60 − 40) ÷ 10 = 2
- 40 + 9 × 2 = 58
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.
