First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.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
2.A number line goes from 10 to 20 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 10. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 14
- Each space is (20 − 10) ÷ 5 = 2
- 10 + 2 × 2 = 14
3.A number line goes from 60 to 65 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 60. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 63
- Each space is (65 − 60) ÷ 5 = 1
- 60 + 3 × 1 = 63
4.A number line goes from 20 to 30 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 20. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 22
- Each space is (30 − 20) ÷ 5 = 2
- 20 + 1 × 2 = 22
5.A number line goes from 10 to 20 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 5 spaces along from 10. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 15
- Each space is (20 − 10) ÷ 10 = 1
- 10 + 5 × 1 = 15
6.A number line goes from 900 to 1,000 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 900. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 920
- Each space is (1,000 − 900) ÷ 10 = 10
- 900 + 2 × 10 = 920
7.A number line goes from 60 to 70 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 60. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 61
- Each space is (70 − 60) ÷ 10 = 1
- 60 + 1 × 1 = 61
8.A number line goes from 800 to 900 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 800. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 830
- Each space is (900 − 800) ÷ 10 = 10
- 800 + 3 × 10 = 830
9.A number line goes from 90 to 100 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 90. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 92
- Each space is (100 − 90) ÷ 10 = 1
- 90 + 2 × 1 = 92
10.A number line goes from 10 to 20 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 10. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 13
- Each space is (20 − 10) ÷ 10 = 1
- 10 + 3 × 1 = 13
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.
