First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 0 to 10 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 0. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 8
- Each space is (10 − 0) ÷ 5 = 2
- 0 + 4 × 2 = 8
2.A number line goes from 40 to 60 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 7 spaces along from 40. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 54
- Each space is (60 − 40) ÷ 10 = 2
- 40 + 7 × 2 = 54
3.A number line goes from 900 to 1,000 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 8 spaces along from 900. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 980
- Each space is (1,000 − 900) ÷ 10 = 10
- 900 + 8 × 10 = 980
4.A number line goes from 90 to 115 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 90. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 110
- Each space is (115 − 90) ÷ 5 = 5
- 90 + 4 × 5 = 110
5.A number line goes from 200 to 300 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 9 spaces along from 200. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 290
- Each space is (300 − 200) ÷ 10 = 10
- 200 + 9 × 10 = 290
6.A number line goes from 90 to 140 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 6 spaces along from 90. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 120
- Each space is (140 − 90) ÷ 10 = 5
- 90 + 6 × 5 = 120
7.A number line goes from 70 to 80 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 70. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 71
- Each space is (80 − 70) ÷ 10 = 1
- 70 + 1 × 1 = 71
8.A number line goes from 30 to 40 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 30. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 32
- Each space is (40 − 30) ÷ 5 = 2
- 30 + 1 × 2 = 32
9.A number line goes from 0 to 10 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 0. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 6
- Each space is (10 − 0) ÷ 5 = 2
- 0 + 3 × 2 = 6
10.A number line goes from 70 to 95 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 70. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 75
- Each space is (95 − 70) ÷ 5 = 5
- 70 + 1 × 5 = 75
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.
