6th 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 75 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 70. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 71
- Each space is (75 − 70) ÷ 5 = 1
- 70 + 1 × 1 = 71
2.A number line goes from 20 to 25 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 2 spaces along from 20. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 22
- Each space is (25 − 20) ÷ 5 = 1
- 20 + 2 × 1 = 22
3.A number line goes from 40 to 50 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 9 spaces along from 40. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 49
- Each space is (50 − 40) ÷ 10 = 1
- 40 + 9 × 1 = 49
4.A number line goes from 50 to 60 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 50. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 51
- Each space is (60 − 50) ÷ 10 = 1
- 50 + 1 × 1 = 51
5.A number line goes from 20 to 40 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 6 spaces along from 20. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 32
- Each space is (40 − 20) ÷ 10 = 2
- 20 + 6 × 2 = 32
6.A number line goes from 40 to 50 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 6 spaces along from 40. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 46
- Each space is (50 − 40) ÷ 10 = 1
- 40 + 6 × 1 = 46
7.A number line goes from 0 to 5 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 4 spaces along from 0. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 4
- Each space is (5 − 0) ÷ 5 = 1
- 0 + 4 × 1 = 4
8.A number line goes from 60 to 80 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 8 spaces along from 60. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 76
- Each space is (80 − 60) ÷ 10 = 2
- 60 + 8 × 2 = 76
9.A number line goes from 0 to 50 and is split into 10 equal spaces. The arrow is 3 spaces along from 0. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 15
- Each space is (50 − 0) ÷ 10 = 5
- 0 + 3 × 5 = 15
10.A number line goes from 0 to 50 and is split into 5 equal spaces. The arrow is 1 space along from 0. What number does the arrow point to?
Answer: 10
- Each space is (50 − 0) ÷ 5 = 10
- 0 + 1 × 10 = 10
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.
