First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 3.6 to 4.1 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 9 spaces along from 3.6. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 4.05
- Each space is (4.1 − 3.6) ÷ 10 = 0.05
- 3.6 + 9 × 0.05 = 4.05
2.A number line goes from 4.3 to 4.34 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 4.3. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 4.31
- Each space is (4.34 − 4.3) ÷ 4 = 0.01
- 4.3 + 1 × 0.01 = 4.31
3.A number line goes from 0 to 1 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 0. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction.
Answer:
- Each space is
- 2 spaces =
4.A number line goes from 4.8 to 4.9 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 4.8. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 4.82
- Each space is (4.9 − 4.8) ÷ 5 = 0.02
- 4.8 + 1 × 0.02 = 4.82
5.A number line goes from 6.3 to 6.34 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 6.3. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 6.33
- Each space is (6.34 − 6.3) ÷ 4 = 0.01
- 6.3 + 3 × 0.01 = 6.33
6.A number line goes from 0 to 1 and is split into 6 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 0. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction.
Answer:
- Each space is
- 1 spaces =
7.A number line goes from 2 to 3 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 2. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 2.6
- Each space is (3 − 2) ÷ 5 = 0.2
- 2 + 3 × 0.2 = 2.6
8.A number line goes from 8.7 to 8.78 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 8.7. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 8.74
- Each space is (8.78 − 8.7) ÷ 4 = 0.02
- 8.7 + 2 × 0.02 = 8.74
9.A number line goes from 4 to 5 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 4. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction or mixed number.
Answer: 4
- Each space is
- 1 spaces =
10.A number line goes from 1 to 6 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 6 spaces along from 1. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 4
- Each space is (6 − 1) ÷ 10 = 0.5
- 1 + 6 × 0.5 = 4
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.
Great work. Here's what to try next:
