First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 6 to 7 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 6. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 6.8
- Each space is (7 − 6) ÷ 5 = 0.2
- 6 + 4 × 0.2 = 6.8
2.A number line goes from 6 to 6.2 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 6. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 6.1
- Each space is (6.2 − 6) ÷ 4 = 0.05
- 6 + 2 × 0.05 = 6.1
3.A number line goes from 2 to 3 and is split into 6 equal spaces. The arrow is 5 spaces along from 2. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction or mixed number.
Answer: 2
- Each space is
- 5 spaces =
4.A number line goes from 9.4 to 9.65 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 9.4. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 9.55
- Each space is (9.65 − 9.4) ÷ 5 = 0.05
- 9.4 + 3 × 0.05 = 9.55
5.A number line goes from 2.7 to 3.2 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 6 spaces along from 2.7. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 3
- Each space is (3.2 − 2.7) ÷ 10 = 0.05
- 2.7 + 6 × 0.05 = 3
6.A number line goes from 1 to 2 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 1. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction or mixed number.
Answer: 1
- Each space is
- 1 spaces =
7.A number line goes from 4.8 to 4.84 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 4.8. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 4.81
- Each space is (4.84 − 4.8) ÷ 4 = 0.01
- 4.8 + 1 × 0.01 = 4.81
8.A number line goes from 0 to 0.5 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 0. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 0.1
- Each space is (0.5 − 0) ÷ 5 = 0.1
- 0 + 1 × 0.1 = 0.1
9.A number line goes from 0 to 1 and is split into 3 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 =
10.A number line goes from 5 to 7 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 8 spaces along from 5. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 6.6
- Each space is (7 − 5) ÷ 10 = 0.2
- 5 + 8 × 0.2 = 6.6
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:
