First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 300 to 550 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 8 spaces along from 300. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 500
- Each space is (550 − 300) ÷ 10 = 25
- 300 + 8 × 25 = 500
2.A number line goes from 600 to 700 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 600. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 675
- Each space is (700 − 600) ÷ 4 = 25
- 600 + 3 × 25 = 675
3.What number is halfway between 30 and 150?
Answer: 90
- 150 − 30 = 120; half of that is 60
- 30 + 60 = 90
4.A number line goes from 8,000 to 10,500 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 9 spaces along from 8,000. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 10,250
- Each space is (10,500 − 8,000) ÷ 10 = 250
- 8,000 + 9 × 250 = 10,250
5.A number line goes from 100 to 600 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 9 spaces along from 100. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 550
- Each space is (600 − 100) ÷ 10 = 50
- 100 + 9 × 50 = 550
6.What number is halfway between 170 and 470?
Answer: 320
- 470 − 170 = 300; half of that is 150
- 170 + 150 = 320
7.A number line goes from 700 to 950 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 700. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 750
- Each space is (950 − 700) ÷ 5 = 50
- 700 + 1 × 50 = 750
8.A number line goes from 300 to 800 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 7 spaces along from 300. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 650
- Each space is (800 − 300) ÷ 10 = 50
- 300 + 7 × 50 = 650
9.What number is halfway between 50 and 630?
Answer: 340
- 630 − 50 = 580; half of that is 290
- 50 + 290 = 340
10.A number line goes from 200 to 450 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 8 spaces along from 200. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 400
- Each space is (450 − 200) ÷ 10 = 25
- 200 + 8 × 25 = 400
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.
