2nd Grade Number Lines Worksheet — Level 3 — Practice Set 2 — Answers
First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 6 to 7 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 6 spaces along from 6. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 6.6
- Each space is (7 − 6) ÷ 10 = 0.1
- 6 + 6 × 0.1 = 6.6
2.A number line goes from 6.5 to 7 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 8 spaces along from 6.5. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 6.9
- Each space is (7 − 6.5) ÷ 10 = 0.05
- 6.5 + 8 × 0.05 = 6.9
3.A number line goes from 4 to 5 and is split into 6 equal spaces. The arrow is 5 spaces along from 4. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction or mixed number.
Answer: 4
- Each space is
- 5 spaces =
4.A number line goes from 5.3 to 5.4 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 5.3. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 5.32
- Each space is (5.4 − 5.3) ÷ 5 = 0.02
- 5.3 + 1 × 0.02 = 5.32
5.A number line goes from 3.1 to 3.3 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 8 spaces along from 3.1. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 3.26
- Each space is (3.3 − 3.1) ÷ 10 = 0.02
- 3.1 + 8 × 0.02 = 3.26
6.A number line goes from 4 to 5 and is split into 6 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 4. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction or mixed number.
Answer: 4
- Each space is
- 4 spaces = =
7.A number line goes from 9 to 10 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 5 spaces along from 9. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 9.5
- Each space is (10 − 9) ÷ 10 = 0.1
- 9 + 5 × 0.1 = 9.5
8.A number line goes from 1.4 to 1.6 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 1.4. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 1.48
- Each space is (1.6 − 1.4) ÷ 10 = 0.02
- 1.4 + 4 × 0.02 = 1.48
9.A number line goes from 4 to 5 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 4. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction or mixed number.
Answer: 4
- Each space is
- 2 spaces =
10.A number line goes from 4.2 to 4.3 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 4.2. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 4.22
- Each space is (4.3 − 4.2) ÷ 5 = 0.02
- 4.2 + 1 × 0.02 = 4.22
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.
Great work. Here's what to try next:
