5th Grade Number Lines Worksheet — Level 1 — Practice Set 3 — Answers
First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 70 to 95 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 70. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 85
- Each space is (95 − 70) ÷ 5 = 5
- 70 + 3 × 5 = 85
2.A number line goes from 90 to 110 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 90. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 98
- Each space is (110 − 90) ÷ 10 = 2
- 90 + 4 × 2 = 98
3.A number line goes from 800 to 900 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 800. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 830
- Each space is (900 − 800) ÷ 10 = 10
- 800 + 3 × 10 = 830
4.A number line goes from 90 to 100 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 90. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 98
- Each space is (100 − 90) ÷ 5 = 2
- 90 + 4 × 2 = 98
5.A number line goes from 0 to 10 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 0. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 2
- Each space is (10 − 0) ÷ 5 = 2
- 0 + 1 × 2 = 2
6.A number line goes from 60 to 80 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 60. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 66
- Each space is (80 − 60) ÷ 10 = 2
- 60 + 3 × 2 = 66
7.A number line goes from 80 to 130 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 7 spaces along from 80. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 115
- Each space is (130 − 80) ÷ 10 = 5
- 80 + 7 × 5 = 115
8.A number line goes from 40 to 50 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 40. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 42
- Each space is (50 − 40) ÷ 5 = 2
- 40 + 1 × 2 = 42
9.A number line goes from 10 to 15 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 10. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 13
- Each space is (15 − 10) ÷ 5 = 1
- 10 + 3 × 1 = 13
10.A number line goes from 90 to 115 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 90. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 95
- Each space is (115 − 90) ÷ 5 = 5
- 90 + 1 × 5 = 95
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.
