Year 7 Number Lines Worksheet — Level 1 — Practice Set 3 — Answers
First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 70 to 95 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 70. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 75
- Each space is (95 − 70) ÷ 5 = 5
- 70 + 1 × 5 = 75
2.A number line goes from 0 to 20 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 0. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 4
- Each space is (20 − 0) ÷ 10 = 2
- 0 + 2 × 2 = 4
3.A number line goes from 0 to 5 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 0. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 1
- Each space is (5 − 0) ÷ 5 = 1
- 0 + 1 × 1 = 1
4.A number line goes from 500 to 600 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 8 spaces along from 500. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 580
- Each space is (600 − 500) ÷ 10 = 10
- 500 + 8 × 10 = 580
5.A number line goes from 70 to 80 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 70. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 78
- Each space is (80 − 70) ÷ 5 = 2
- 70 + 4 × 2 = 78
6.A number line goes from 50 to 55 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 50. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 51
- Each space is (55 − 50) ÷ 5 = 1
- 50 + 1 × 1 = 51
7.A number line goes from 500 to 600 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 500. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 510
- Each space is (600 − 500) ÷ 10 = 10
- 500 + 1 × 10 = 510
8.A number line goes from 60 to 110 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 6 spaces along from 60. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 90
- Each space is (110 − 60) ÷ 10 = 5
- 60 + 6 × 5 = 90
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 20 to 30 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 20. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 28
- Each space is (30 − 20) ÷ 5 = 2
- 20 + 4 × 2 = 28
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.
