First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 3 to 3.4 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 3. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 3.2
- Each space is (3.4 − 3) ÷ 4 = 0.1
- 3 + 2 × 0.1 = 3.2
2.A number line goes from 6.8 to 7.05 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 6.8. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 6.85
- Each space is (7.05 − 6.8) ÷ 5 = 0.05
- 6.8 + 1 × 0.05 = 6.85
3.A number line goes from 1 to 2 and is split into 4 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 8.1 to 8.15 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 8.1. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 8.13
- Each space is (8.15 − 8.1) ÷ 5 = 0.01
- 8.1 + 3 × 0.01 = 8.13
5.A number line goes from 9 to 10 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 9. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 9.1
- Each space is (10 − 9) ÷ 10 = 0.1
- 9 + 1 × 0.1 = 9.1
6.A number line goes from 2 to 3 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 2. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction or mixed number.
Answer: 2
- Each space is
- 2 spaces =
7.A number line goes from 5 to 7 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 6 spaces along from 5. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 6.2
- Each space is (7 − 5) ÷ 10 = 0.2
- 5 + 6 × 0.2 = 6.2
8.A number line goes from 6.1 to 6.6 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 6.1. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 6.2
- Each space is (6.6 − 6.1) ÷ 10 = 0.05
- 6.1 + 2 × 0.05 = 6.2
9.A number line goes from 3 to 4 and is split into 4 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 = =
10.A number line goes from 3.3 to 3.5 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 7 spaces along from 3.3. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 3.44
- Each space is (3.5 − 3.3) ÷ 10 = 0.02
- 3.3 + 7 × 0.02 = 3.44
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.
Great work. Here's what to try next:
