First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 80 to 105 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 80. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 85
- Each space is (105 − 80) ÷ 5 = 5
- 80 + 1 × 5 = 85
2.A number line goes from 400 to 500 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 9 spaces along from 400. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 490
- Each space is (500 − 400) ÷ 10 = 10
- 400 + 9 × 10 = 490
3.A number line goes from 50 to 100 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 7 spaces along from 50. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 85
- Each space is (100 − 50) ÷ 10 = 5
- 50 + 7 × 5 = 85
4.A number line goes from 70 to 80 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 70. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 74
- Each space is (80 − 70) ÷ 5 = 2
- 70 + 2 × 2 = 74
5.A number line goes from 40 to 65 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 40. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 50
- Each space is (65 − 40) ÷ 5 = 5
- 40 + 2 × 5 = 50
6.A number line goes from 60 to 70 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 60. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 64
- Each space is (70 − 60) ÷ 5 = 2
- 60 + 2 × 2 = 64
7.A number line goes from 30 to 80 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 30. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 45
- Each space is (80 − 30) ÷ 10 = 5
- 30 + 3 × 5 = 45
8.A number line goes from 10 to 15 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 10. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 11
- Each space is (15 − 10) ÷ 5 = 1
- 10 + 1 × 1 = 11
9.A number line goes from 60 to 110 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 8 spaces along from 60. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 100
- Each space is (110 − 60) ÷ 10 = 5
- 60 + 8 × 5 = 100
10.A number line goes from 800 to 850 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 800. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 830
- Each space is (850 − 800) ÷ 5 = 10
- 800 + 3 × 10 = 830
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.
