Year 4 Number Lines Worksheet — Level 2 — Practice Set 2 — Answers
First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 2,000 to 4,500 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 2,000. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 2,500
- Each space is (4,500 − 2,000) ÷ 10 = 250
- 2,000 + 2 × 250 = 2,500
2.A number line goes from 400 to 500 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 400. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 475
- Each space is (500 − 400) ÷ 4 = 25
- 400 + 3 × 25 = 475
3.What number is halfway between 290 and 870?
Answer: 580
- 870 − 290 = 580; half of that is 290
- 290 + 290 = 580
4.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
5.A number line goes from 700 to 950 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 700. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 750
- Each space is (950 − 700) ÷ 5 = 50
- 700 + 1 × 50 = 750
6.What number is halfway between 10 and 110?
Answer: 60
- 110 − 10 = 100; half of that is 50
- 10 + 50 = 60
7.A number line goes from 300 to 800 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 300. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 700
- Each space is (800 − 300) ÷ 5 = 100
- 300 + 4 × 100 = 700
8.A number line goes from 700 to 950 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 700. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 850
- Each space is (950 − 700) ÷ 5 = 50
- 700 + 3 × 50 = 850
9.What number is halfway between 80 and 540?
Answer: 310
- 540 − 80 = 460; half of that is 230
- 80 + 230 = 310
10.A number line goes from 300 to 380 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 300. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 320
- Each space is (380 − 300) ÷ 4 = 20
- 300 + 1 × 20 = 320
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.
