Year 4 Number Lines Worksheet — Level 3 — Practice Set 3 — Answers
First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 6 to 6.4 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 6. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 6.3
- Each space is (6.4 − 6) ÷ 4 = 0.1
- 6 + 3 × 0.1 = 6.3
2.A number line goes from 8 to 9 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 8. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 8.4
- Each space is (9 − 8) ÷ 5 = 0.2
- 8 + 2 × 0.2 = 8.4
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 9.9 to 10.15 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 9.9. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 9.95
- Each space is (10.15 − 9.9) ÷ 5 = 0.05
- 9.9 + 1 × 0.05 = 9.95
5.A number line goes from 3.4 to 3.5 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 3.4. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 3.44
- Each space is (3.5 − 3.4) ÷ 5 = 0.02
- 3.4 + 2 × 0.02 = 3.44
6.A number line goes from 2 to 3 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 2. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction or mixed number.
Answer: 2
- Each space is
- 3 spaces =
7.A number line goes from 3 to 4 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 3. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 3.2
- Each space is (4 − 3) ÷ 5 = 0.2
- 3 + 1 × 0.2 = 3.2
8.A number line goes from 6.2 to 6.7 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 6.2. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 6.4
- Each space is (6.7 − 6.2) ÷ 10 = 0.05
- 6.2 + 4 × 0.05 = 6.4
9.A number line goes from 0 to 1 and is split into 3 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 0. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction.
Answer:
- Each space is
- 2 spaces =
10.A number line goes from 7 to 9 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 7. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 7.4
- Each space is (9 − 7) ÷ 10 = 0.2
- 7 + 2 × 0.2 = 7.4
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:
