First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 60 to 110 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 60. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 75
- Each space is (110 − 60) ÷ 10 = 5
- 60 + 3 × 5 = 75
2.A number line goes from 50 to 100 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 9 spaces along from 50. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 95
- Each space is (100 − 50) ÷ 10 = 5
- 50 + 9 × 5 = 95
3.A number line goes from 500 to 550 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 500. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 520
- Each space is (550 − 500) ÷ 5 = 10
- 500 + 2 × 10 = 520
4.A number line goes from 200 to 300 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 6 spaces along from 200. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 260
- Each space is (300 − 200) ÷ 10 = 10
- 200 + 6 × 10 = 260
5.A number line goes from 30 to 35 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 30. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 32
- Each space is (35 − 30) ÷ 5 = 1
- 30 + 2 × 1 = 32
6.A number line goes from 60 to 70 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 60. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 66
- Each space is (70 − 60) ÷ 5 = 2
- 60 + 3 × 2 = 66
7.A number line goes from 80 to 100 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 9 spaces along from 80. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 98
- Each space is (100 − 80) ÷ 10 = 2
- 80 + 9 × 2 = 98
8.A number line goes from 70 to 95 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 70. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 80
- Each space is (95 − 70) ÷ 5 = 5
- 70 + 2 × 5 = 80
9.A number line goes from 10 to 20 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 7 spaces along from 10. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 17
- Each space is (20 − 10) ÷ 10 = 1
- 10 + 7 × 1 = 17
10.A number line goes from 40 to 50 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 40. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 44
- Each space is (50 − 40) ÷ 10 = 1
- 40 + 4 × 1 = 44
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.
