Year 7 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 75 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 50. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 55
- Each space is (75 − 50) ÷ 5 = 5
- 50 + 1 × 5 = 55
2.A number line goes from 40 to 90 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 40. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 45
- Each space is (90 − 40) ÷ 10 = 5
- 40 + 1 × 5 = 45
3.A number line goes from 300 to 350 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 300. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 340
- Each space is (350 − 300) ÷ 5 = 10
- 300 + 4 × 10 = 340
4.A number line goes from 10 to 30 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 9 spaces along from 10. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 28
- Each space is (30 − 10) ÷ 10 = 2
- 10 + 9 × 2 = 28
5.A number line goes from 0 to 10 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 0. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 3
- Each space is (10 − 0) ÷ 10 = 1
- 0 + 3 × 1 = 3
6.A number line goes from 50 to 100 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 50. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 70
- Each space is (100 − 50) ÷ 10 = 5
- 50 + 4 × 5 = 70
7.A number line goes from 10 to 20 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 8 spaces along from 10. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 18
- Each space is (20 − 10) ÷ 10 = 1
- 10 + 8 × 1 = 18
8.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
9.A number line goes from 60 to 70 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 60. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 61
- Each space is (70 − 60) ÷ 10 = 1
- 60 + 1 × 1 = 61
10.A number line goes from 500 to 550 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 500. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 540
- Each space is (550 − 500) ÷ 5 = 10
- 500 + 4 × 10 = 540
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.
