First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 8 to 8.08 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 8. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 8.02
- Each space is (8.08 − 8) ÷ 4 = 0.02
- 8 + 1 × 0.02 = 8.02
2.A number line goes from 9.6 to 9.7 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 9 spaces along from 9.6. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 9.69
- Each space is (9.7 − 9.6) ÷ 10 = 0.01
- 9.6 + 9 × 0.01 = 9.69
3.A number line goes from 1 to 2 and is split into 6 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 1. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction or mixed number.
Answer: 1
- Each space is
- 3 spaces = =
4.A number line goes from 5 to 5.8 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 5. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 5.4
- Each space is (5.8 − 5) ÷ 4 = 0.2
- 5 + 2 × 0.2 = 5.4
5.A number line goes from 5 to 10 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 5. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 7
- Each space is (10 − 5) ÷ 10 = 0.5
- 5 + 4 × 0.5 = 7
6.A number line goes from 3 to 4 and is split into 3 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 3. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction or mixed number.
Answer: 3
- Each space is
- 2 spaces =
7.A number line goes from 8.6 to 8.8 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 7 spaces along from 8.6. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 8.74
- Each space is (8.8 − 8.6) ÷ 10 = 0.02
- 8.6 + 7 × 0.02 = 8.74
8.A number line goes from 3.8 to 3.85 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 3.8. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 3.83
- Each space is (3.85 − 3.8) ÷ 5 = 0.01
- 3.8 + 3 × 0.01 = 3.83
9.A number line goes from 4 to 5 and is split into 8 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 4. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction or mixed number.
Answer: 4
- Each space is

10.A number line goes from 5.2 to 5.25 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 5.2. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 5.24
- Each space is (5.25 − 5.2) ÷ 5 = 0.01
- 5.2 + 4 × 0.01 = 5.24
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.
