First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 500 to 750 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 500. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 600
- Each space is (750 − 500) ÷ 10 = 25
- 500 + 4 × 25 = 600
2.A number line goes from 900 to 980 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 900. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 960
- Each space is (980 − 900) ÷ 4 = 20
- 900 + 3 × 20 = 960
3.What number is halfway between 10 and 190?
Answer: 100
- 190 − 10 = 180; half of that is 90
- 10 + 90 = 100
4.A number line goes from 300 to 500 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 300. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 450
- Each space is (500 − 300) ÷ 4 = 50
- 300 + 3 × 50 = 450
5.A number line goes from 900 to 980 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 900. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 940
- Each space is (980 − 900) ÷ 4 = 20
- 900 + 2 × 20 = 940
6.What number is halfway between 100 and 160?
Answer: 130
- 160 − 100 = 60; half of that is 30
- 100 + 30 = 130
7.A number line goes from 5,000 to 6,250 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 5,000. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 6,000
- Each space is (6,250 − 5,000) ÷ 5 = 250
- 5,000 + 4 × 250 = 6,000
8.A number line goes from 700 to 1,200 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 9 spaces along from 700. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 1,150
- Each space is (1,200 − 700) ÷ 10 = 50
- 700 + 9 × 50 = 1,150
9.What number is halfway between 160 and 660?
Answer: 410
- 660 − 160 = 500; half of that is 250
- 160 + 250 = 410
10.A number line goes from 200 to 400 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 200. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 250
- Each space is (400 − 200) ÷ 4 = 50
- 200 + 1 × 50 = 250
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.
