First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 60 to 70 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 9 spaces along from 60. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 69
- Each space is (70 − 60) ÷ 10 = 1
- 60 + 9 × 1 = 69
2.A number line goes from 900 to 1,000 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 9 spaces along from 900. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 990
- Each space is (1,000 − 900) ÷ 10 = 10
- 900 + 9 × 10 = 990
3.A number line goes from 30 to 80 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 30. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 50
- Each space is (80 − 30) ÷ 10 = 5
- 30 + 4 × 5 = 50
4.A number line goes from 80 to 85 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 80. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 84
- Each space is (85 − 80) ÷ 5 = 1
- 80 + 4 × 1 = 84
5.A number line goes from 20 to 25 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 20. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 24
- Each space is (25 − 20) ÷ 5 = 1
- 20 + 4 × 1 = 24
6.A number line goes from 500 to 550 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 500. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 530
- Each space is (550 − 500) ÷ 5 = 10
- 500 + 3 × 10 = 530
7.A number line goes from 40 to 60 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 40. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 42
- Each space is (60 − 40) ÷ 10 = 2
- 40 + 1 × 2 = 42
8.A number line goes from 60 to 110 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 60. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 75
- Each space is (110 − 60) ÷ 10 = 5
- 60 + 3 × 5 = 75
9.A number line goes from 800 to 900 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 7 spaces along from 800. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 870
- Each space is (900 − 800) ÷ 10 = 10
- 800 + 7 × 10 = 870
10.A number line goes from 60 to 85 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 60. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 65
- Each space is (85 − 60) ÷ 5 = 5
- 60 + 1 × 5 = 65
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.
