First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 700 to 800 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 700. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 760
- Each space is (800 − 700) ÷ 5 = 20
- 700 + 3 × 20 = 760
2.A number line goes from 300 to 700 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 300. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 500
- Each space is (700 − 300) ÷ 4 = 100
- 300 + 2 × 100 = 500
3.What number is halfway between 150 and 570?
Answer: 360
- 570 − 150 = 420; half of that is 210
- 150 + 210 = 360
4.A number line goes from 700 to 1,100 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 700. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 800
- Each space is (1,100 − 700) ÷ 4 = 100
- 700 + 1 × 100 = 800
5.A number line goes from 900 to 980 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 900. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 940
- Each space is (980 − 900) ÷ 4 = 20
- 900 + 2 × 20 = 940
6.What number is halfway between 150 and 750?
Answer: 450
- 750 − 150 = 600; half of that is 300
- 150 + 300 = 450
7.A number line goes from 600 to 680 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 600. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 620
- Each space is (680 − 600) ÷ 4 = 20
- 600 + 1 × 20 = 620
8.A number line goes from 600 to 680 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 600. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 640
- Each space is (680 − 600) ÷ 4 = 20
- 600 + 2 × 20 = 640
9.What number is halfway between 60 and 440?
Answer: 250
- 440 − 60 = 380; half of that is 190
- 60 + 190 = 250
10.A number line goes from 500 to 600 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 500. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 560
- Each space is (600 − 500) ÷ 5 = 20
- 500 + 3 × 20 = 560
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.
