First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 3 to 3.08 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 3. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 3.02
- Each space is (3.08 − 3) ÷ 4 = 0.02
- 3 + 1 × 0.02 = 3.02
2.A number line goes from 7.3 to 7.8 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 7.3. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 7.35
- Each space is (7.8 − 7.3) ÷ 10 = 0.05
- 7.3 + 1 × 0.05 = 7.35
3.A number line goes from 0 to 1 and is split into 8 equal spaces. The arrow is 7 spaces along from 0. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction.
Answer:
- Each space is
- 7 spaces =
4.A number line goes from 9 to 9.5 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 9. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 9.4
- Each space is (9.5 − 9) ÷ 5 = 0.1
- 9 + 4 × 0.1 = 9.4
5.A number line goes from 4 to 6 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 4. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 5
- Each space is (6 − 4) ÷ 4 = 0.5
- 4 + 2 × 0.5 = 5
6.A number line goes from 0 to 1 and is split into 6 equal spaces. The arrow is 5 spaces along from 0. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction.
Answer:
- Each space is
- 5 spaces =
7.A number line goes from 0 to 1 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 0. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 0.4
- Each space is (1 − 0) ÷ 5 = 0.2
- 0 + 2 × 0.2 = 0.4
8.A number line goes from 3.1 to 3.2 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 3.1. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 3.18
- Each space is (3.2 − 3.1) ÷ 5 = 0.02
- 3.1 + 4 × 0.02 = 3.18
9.A number line goes from 1 to 2 and is split into 3 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 1. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction or mixed number.
Answer: 1
- Each space is
- 1 spaces =
10.A number line goes from 6 to 8 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 6. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 6.6
- Each space is (8 − 6) ÷ 10 = 0.2
- 6 + 3 × 0.2 = 6.6
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.
