First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 400 to 900 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 8 spaces along from 400. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 800
- Each space is (900 − 400) ÷ 10 = 50
- 400 + 8 × 50 = 800
2.A number line goes from 8,000 to 9,250 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 8,000. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 8,500
- Each space is (9,250 − 8,000) ÷ 5 = 250
- 8,000 + 2 × 250 = 8,500
3.What number is halfway between 120 and 380?
Answer: 250
- 380 − 120 = 260; half of that is 130
- 120 + 130 = 250
4.A number line goes from 400 to 650 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 400. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 450
- Each space is (650 − 400) ÷ 5 = 50
- 400 + 1 × 50 = 450
5.A number line goes from 7,000 to 8,250 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 7,000. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 7,500
- Each space is (8,250 − 7,000) ÷ 5 = 250
- 7,000 + 2 × 250 = 7,500
6.What number is halfway between 190 and 770?
Answer: 480
- 770 − 190 = 580; half of that is 290
- 190 + 290 = 480
7.A number line goes from 500 to 580 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 500. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 520
- Each space is (580 − 500) ÷ 4 = 20
- 500 + 1 × 20 = 520
8.A number line goes from 7,000 to 8,000 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 7,000. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 7,750
- Each space is (8,000 − 7,000) ÷ 4 = 250
- 7,000 + 3 × 250 = 7,750
9.What number is halfway between 100 and 420?
Answer: 260
- 420 − 100 = 320; half of that is 160
- 100 + 160 = 260
10.A number line goes from 700 to 825 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 700. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 775
- Each space is (825 − 700) ÷ 5 = 25
- 700 + 3 × 25 = 775
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.
