First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 5 to 7.5 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 5. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 5.5
- Each space is (7.5 − 5) ÷ 5 = 0.5
- 5 + 1 × 0.5 = 5.5
2.A number line goes from 5 to 6 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 5 spaces along from 5. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 5.5
- Each space is (6 − 5) ÷ 10 = 0.1
- 5 + 5 × 0.1 = 5.5
3.A number line goes from 0 to 1 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 0. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction.
Answer:
- Each space is
- 1 spaces =
4.A number line goes from 4.5 to 4.7 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 4.5. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 4.58
- Each space is (4.7 − 4.5) ÷ 10 = 0.02
- 4.5 + 4 × 0.02 = 4.58
5.A number line goes from 2 to 2.5 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 2. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 2.1
- Each space is (2.5 − 2) ÷ 5 = 0.1
- 2 + 1 × 0.1 = 2.1
6.A number line goes from 4 to 5 and is split into 3 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 4. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction or mixed number.
Answer: 4
- Each space is
- 1 spaces =
7.A number line goes from 8 to 8.8 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 8. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 8.6
- Each space is (8.8 − 8) ÷ 4 = 0.2
- 8 + 3 × 0.2 = 8.6
8.A number line goes from 1.9 to 2 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 1.9. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 1.92
- Each space is (2 − 1.9) ÷ 5 = 0.02
- 1.9 + 1 × 0.02 = 1.92
9.A number line goes from 2 to 3 and is split into 6 equal spaces. The arrow is 5 spaces along from 2. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction or mixed number.
Answer: 2
- Each space is
- 5 spaces =
10.A number line goes from 2.2 to 2.45 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 2.2. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 2.3
- Each space is (2.45 − 2.2) ÷ 5 = 0.05
- 2.2 + 2 × 0.05 = 2.3
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:
