Year 7 Number Lines Worksheet — Level 1 — Practice Set 2 — Answers
First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 800 to 850 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 800. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 820
- Each space is (850 − 800) ÷ 5 = 10
- 800 + 2 × 10 = 820
2.A number line goes from 50 to 100 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 50. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 60
- Each space is (100 − 50) ÷ 10 = 5
- 50 + 2 × 5 = 60
3.A number line goes from 30 to 35 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 30. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 33
- Each space is (35 − 30) ÷ 5 = 1
- 30 + 3 × 1 = 33
4.A number line goes from 80 to 85 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 80. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 82
- Each space is (85 − 80) ÷ 5 = 1
- 80 + 2 × 1 = 82
5.A number line goes from 80 to 85 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 80. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 81
- Each space is (85 − 80) ÷ 5 = 1
- 80 + 1 × 1 = 81
6.A number line goes from 500 to 600 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 9 spaces along from 500. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 590
- Each space is (600 − 500) ÷ 10 = 10
- 500 + 9 × 10 = 590
7.A number line goes from 100 to 150 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 100. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 130
- Each space is (150 − 100) ÷ 5 = 10
- 100 + 3 × 10 = 130
8.A number line goes from 100 to 200 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 100. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 140
- Each space is (200 − 100) ÷ 10 = 10
- 100 + 4 × 10 = 140
9.A number line goes from 40 to 60 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 9 spaces along from 40. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 58
- Each space is (60 − 40) ÷ 10 = 2
- 40 + 9 × 2 = 58
10.A number line goes from 30 to 35 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 30. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 34
- Each space is (35 − 30) ÷ 5 = 1
- 30 + 4 × 1 = 34
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.
