Year 4 Number Lines Worksheet — Level 3 — Practice Set 4 — Answers
First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 7 to 9 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 7 spaces along from 7. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 8.4
- Each space is (9 − 7) ÷ 10 = 0.2
- 7 + 7 × 0.2 = 8.4
2.A number line goes from 4 to 4.5 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 4. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 4.1
- Each space is (4.5 − 4) ÷ 5 = 0.1
- 4 + 1 × 0.1 = 4.1
3.A number line goes from 0 to 1 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 8 spaces along from 0. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction.
Answer:
- Each space is
- 8 spaces = =
4.A number line goes from 8 to 10.5 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 8. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 9.5
- Each space is (10.5 − 8) ÷ 5 = 0.5
- 8 + 3 × 0.5 = 9.5
5.A number line goes from 6.3 to 6.4 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 5 spaces along from 6.3. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 6.35
- Each space is (6.4 − 6.3) ÷ 10 = 0.01
- 6.3 + 5 × 0.01 = 6.35
6.A number line goes from 2 to 3 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 2. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction or mixed number.
Answer: 2
- Each space is
- 1 spaces =
7.A number line goes from 0 to 2 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 0. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 1
- Each space is (2 − 0) ÷ 4 = 0.5
- 0 + 2 × 0.5 = 1
8.A number line goes from 3 to 3.4 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 3. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 3.3
- Each space is (3.4 − 3) ÷ 4 = 0.1
- 3 + 3 × 0.1 = 3.3
9.A number line goes from 2 to 3 and is split into 8 equal spaces. The arrow is 7 spaces along from 2. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction or mixed number.

- 1 + 2 × 0.2 = 1.4
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:
