First find how much each space is worth: (end − start) ÷ number of spaces.
1.A number line goes from 3.9 to 4 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 7 spaces along from 3.9. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 3.97
- Each space is (4 − 3.9) ÷ 10 = 0.01
- 3.9 + 7 × 0.01 = 3.97
2.A number line goes from 6.7 to 6.74 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 6.7. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 6.73
- Each space is (6.74 − 6.7) ÷ 4 = 0.01
- 6.7 + 3 × 0.01 = 6.73
3.A number line goes from 3 to 4 and is split into 3 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 3. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction or mixed number.
Answer: 3
- Each space is
- 2 spaces =
4.A number line goes from 6 to 8 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 6. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 6.5
- Each space is (8 − 6) ÷ 4 = 0.5
- 6 + 1 × 0.5 = 6.5
5.A number line goes from 8 to 8.8 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 8. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 8.2
- Each space is (8.8 − 8) ÷ 4 = 0.2
- 8 + 1 × 0.2 = 8.2
6.A number line goes from 1 to 2 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 1. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction or mixed number.
Answer: 1
- Each space is
- 3 spaces =
7.A number line goes from 7 to 9 and is split into 4 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 7. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 8.5
- Each space is (9 − 7) ÷ 4 = 0.5
- 7 + 3 × 0.5 = 8.5
8.A number line goes from 9 to 11.5 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 9. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 9.5
- Each space is (11.5 − 9) ÷ 5 = 0.5
- 9 + 1 × 0.5 = 9.5
9.A number line goes from 1 to 2 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 1. Write the number at the arrow as a fraction or mixed number.
Answer: 1
- Each space is
- 2 spaces = =
10.A number line goes from 7.3 to 7.8 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 6 spaces along from 7.3. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 7.6
- Each space is (7.8 − 7.3) ÷ 10 = 0.05
- 7.3 + 6 × 0.05 = 7.6
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.
Great work. Here's what to try next:
