First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 10 to 60 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 10. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 20
- Each space is (60 − 10) ÷ 10 = 5
- 10 + 2 × 5 = 20
2.A number line goes from 40 to 65 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 40. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 55
- Each space is (65 − 40) ÷ 5 = 5
- 40 + 3 × 5 = 55
3.A number line goes from 900 to 1,000 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 900. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 940
- Each space is (1,000 − 900) ÷ 10 = 10
- 900 + 4 × 10 = 940
4.A number line goes from 30 to 50 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 30. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 34
- Each space is (50 − 30) ÷ 10 = 2
- 30 + 2 × 2 = 34
5.A number line goes from 50 to 55 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 50. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 53
- Each space is (55 − 50) ÷ 5 = 1
- 50 + 3 × 1 = 53
6.A number line goes from 50 to 70 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 9 spaces along from 50. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 68
- Each space is (70 − 50) ÷ 10 = 2
- 50 + 9 × 2 = 68
7.A number line goes from 20 to 70 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 8 spaces along from 20. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 60
- Each space is (70 − 20) ÷ 10 = 5
- 20 + 8 × 5 = 60
8.A number line goes from 60 to 80 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 8 spaces along from 60. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 76
- Each space is (80 − 60) ÷ 10 = 2
- 60 + 8 × 2 = 76
9.A number line goes from 90 to 115 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 90. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 95
- Each space is (115 − 90) ÷ 5 = 5
- 90 + 1 × 5 = 95
10.A number line goes from 0 to 10 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 0. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 2
- Each space is (10 − 0) ÷ 10 = 1
- 0 + 2 × 1 = 2
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.
