3rd Grade Number Lines Worksheet — Level 3 — Practice Set 4 — Answers
First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 1.5 to 1.7 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 1.5. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 1.54
- Each space is (1.7 − 1.5) ÷ 10 = 0.02
- 1.5 + 2 × 0.02 = 1.54
2.A number line goes from 1 to 3 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 1. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 2
- Each space is (3 − 1) ÷ 4 = 0.5
- 1 + 2 × 0.5 = 2
3.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 =
4.A number line goes from 3.7 to 3.74 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 3.7. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 3.73
- Each space is (3.74 − 3.7) ÷ 4 = 0.01
- 3.7 + 3 × 0.01 = 3.73
5.A number line goes from 3.5 to 3.6 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 3.5. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 3.52
- Each space is (3.6 − 3.5) ÷ 5 = 0.02
- 3.5 + 1 × 0.02 = 3.52
6.A number line goes from 3 to 4 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 3. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction or mixed number.
Answer: 3
- Each space is
- 3 spaces =
7.A number line goes from 0.6 to 0.65 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 0.6. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 0.62
- Each space is (0.65 − 0.6) ÷ 5 = 0.01
- 0.6 + 2 × 0.01 = 0.62
8.A number line goes from 9.8 to 9.85 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 9.8. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 9.84
- Each space is (9.85 − 9.8) ÷ 5 = 0.01
- 9.8 + 4 × 0.01 = 9.84
9.A number line goes from 2 to 3 and is split into 3 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 2. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction or mixed number.
Answer: 2
- Each space is
- 2 spaces =
10.A number line goes from 9 to 10 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 9. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 9.2
- Each space is (10 − 9) ÷ 10 = 0.1
- 9 + 2 × 0.1 = 9.2
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.
