First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 2 to 7 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 2. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 3
- Each space is (7 − 2) ÷ 10 = 0.5
- 2 + 2 × 0.5 = 3
2.A number line goes from 5.6 to 5.7 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 5.6. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 5.62
- Each space is (5.7 − 5.6) ÷ 10 = 0.01
- 5.6 + 2 × 0.01 = 5.62
3.A number line goes from 3 to 4 and is split into 3 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 3. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction or mixed number.
Answer: 3
- Each space is
- 1 spaces =
4.A number line goes from 3.5 to 4 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 9 spaces along from 3.5. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 3.95
- Each space is (4 − 3.5) ÷ 10 = 0.05
- 3.5 + 9 × 0.05 = 3.95
5.A number line goes from 6.7 to 6.9 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 6.7. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 6.85
- Each space is (6.9 − 6.7) ÷ 4 = 0.05
- 6.7 + 3 × 0.05 = 6.85
6.A number line goes from 1 to 2 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 1. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction or mixed number.
Answer: 1
- Each space is
- 4 spaces =
7.A number line goes from 0.1 to 0.3 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 0.1. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 0.25
- Each space is (0.3 − 0.1) ÷ 4 = 0.05
- 0.1 + 3 × 0.05 = 0.25
8.A number line goes from 2.4 to 2.5 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 2.4. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 2.42
- Each space is (2.5 − 2.4) ÷ 10 = 0.01
- 2.4 + 2 × 0.01 = 2.42
9.A number line goes from 2 to 3 and is split into 8 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 2. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction or mixed number.
Answer: 2
- Each space is
- 4 spaces = =
10.A number line goes from 7 to 8 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 9 spaces along from 7. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 7.9
- Each space is (8 − 7) ÷ 10 = 0.1
- 7 + 9 × 0.1 = 7.9
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:
