First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 1,000 to 2,250 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 1,000. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 1,250
- Each space is (2,250 − 1,000) ÷ 5 = 250
- 1,000 + 1 × 250 = 1,250
2.A number line goes from 200 to 325 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 200. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 250
- Each space is (325 − 200) ÷ 5 = 25
- 200 + 2 × 25 = 250
3.What number is halfway between 280 and 880?
Answer: 580
- 880 − 280 = 600; half of that is 300
- 280 + 300 = 580
4.A number line goes from 4,000 to 5,250 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 4,000. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 4,750
- Each space is (5,250 − 4,000) ÷ 5 = 250
- 4,000 + 3 × 250 = 4,750
5.A number line goes from 6,000 to 8,500 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 9 spaces along from 6,000. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 8,250
- Each space is (8,500 − 6,000) ÷ 10 = 250
- 6,000 + 9 × 250 = 8,250
6.What number is halfway between 120 and 720?
Answer: 420
- 720 − 120 = 600; half of that is 300
- 120 + 300 = 420
7.A number line goes from 800 to 900 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 800. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 820
- Each space is (900 − 800) ÷ 5 = 20
- 800 + 1 × 20 = 820
8.A number line goes from 900 to 1,100 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 900. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 950
- Each space is (1,100 − 900) ÷ 4 = 50
- 900 + 1 × 50 = 950
9.What number is halfway between 310 and 910?
Answer: 610
- 910 − 310 = 600; half of that is 300
- 310 + 300 = 610
10.A number line goes from 600 to 800 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 7 spaces along from 600. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 740
- Each space is (800 − 600) ÷ 10 = 20
- 600 + 7 × 20 = 740
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.
