Year 6 Number Lines Worksheet — Level 1 — Practice Set 4 — Answers
First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 50 to 100 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 50. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 65
- Each space is (100 − 50) ÷ 10 = 5
- 50 + 3 × 5 = 65
2.A number line goes from 60 to 70 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 8 spaces along from 60. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 68
- Each space is (70 − 60) ÷ 10 = 1
- 60 + 8 × 1 = 68
3.A number line goes from 90 to 140 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 90. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 100
- Each space is (140 − 90) ÷ 10 = 5
- 90 + 2 × 5 = 100
4.A number line goes from 40 to 50 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 40. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 48
- Each space is (50 − 40) ÷ 5 = 2
- 40 + 4 × 2 = 48
5.A number line goes from 90 to 140 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 5 spaces along from 90. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 115
- Each space is (140 − 90) ÷ 10 = 5
- 90 + 5 × 5 = 115
6.A number line goes from 60 to 80 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 7 spaces along from 60. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 74
- Each space is (80 − 60) ÷ 10 = 2
- 60 + 7 × 2 = 74
7.A number line goes from 40 to 60 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 5 spaces along from 40. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 50
- Each space is (60 − 40) ÷ 10 = 2
- 40 + 5 × 2 = 50
8.A number line goes from 400 to 500 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 400. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 420
- Each space is (500 − 400) ÷ 10 = 10
- 400 + 2 × 10 = 420
9.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
10.A number line goes from 500 to 600 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 500. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 520
- Each space is (600 − 500) ÷ 10 = 10
- 500 + 2 × 10 = 520
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.
