First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 500 to 550 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 500. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 540
- Each space is (550 − 500) ÷ 5 = 10
- 500 + 4 × 10 = 540
2.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
3.A number line goes from 700 to 800 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 6 spaces along from 700. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 760
- Each space is (800 − 700) ÷ 10 = 10
- 700 + 6 × 10 = 760
4.A number line goes from 0 to 25 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 0. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 5
- Each space is (25 − 0) ÷ 5 = 5
- 0 + 1 × 5 = 5
5.A number line goes from 800 to 900 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 800. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 820
- Each space is (900 − 800) ÷ 10 = 10
- 800 + 2 × 10 = 820
6.A number line goes from 80 to 90 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 80. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 86
- Each space is (90 − 80) ÷ 5 = 2
- 80 + 3 × 2 = 86
7.A number line goes from 70 to 80 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 7 spaces along from 70. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 77
- Each space is (80 − 70) ÷ 10 = 1
- 70 + 7 × 1 = 77
8.A number line goes from 30 to 40 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 9 spaces along from 30. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 39
- Each space is (40 − 30) ÷ 10 = 1
- 30 + 9 × 1 = 39
9.A number line goes from 50 to 60 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 9 spaces along from 50. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 59
- Each space is (60 − 50) ÷ 10 = 1
- 50 + 9 × 1 = 59
10.A number line goes from 100 to 200 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 100. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 130
- Each space is (200 − 100) ÷ 10 = 10
- 100 + 3 × 10 = 130
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.
