TEAS Test Math Questions Questions
Question 1 of 5
A sign stating 'Do Not Enter' is in the shape of a square with side lengths of 75 centimeters. What is the area in square centimeters?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The formula for the area of a square is given by the square of its side length: Area = side side. For this problem, the side length of the square is 75 centimeters. To find the area, you multiply 75 by itself: 75 75 = 5,625 square centimeters. Thus, the area of the square is 5,625 cm². This shows that option D is correct. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not correspond to the correct calculation of the area of a square with a side length of 75 centimeters.
Question 2 of 5
Eric buys 5 1/2 pounds of apples each week for four weeks. How many total pounds does he buy?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To find the total pounds of apples Eric buys, you need to multiply the pounds of apples bought each week (5 1/2 pounds) by the number of weeks (4 weeks). When you multiply 5 1/2 by 4, you get 22 pounds. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately calculate the total pounds purchased over the four weeks.
Question 3 of 5
A piece of wood that is 7 1/2 feet long has 3 1/4 feet cut off. How many feet of wood remain?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To find the remaining length of wood, you need to subtract 3 1/4 feet from 7 1/2 feet. When you subtract the fractions, 7 1/2 - 3 1/4, you get 15/2 - 13/4 = 30/4 - 13/4 = 17/4 = 4 1/4 feet. Therefore, the correct answer is 4 1/4 feet. Choice B (4 1/2 feet) is incorrect because the subtraction result is not 1/2. Choice C (3 1/2 feet) is incorrect as it does not match the correct result of 4 1/4 feet. Choice D (3 3/4 feet) is also incorrect as it does not align with the correct answer obtained from the subtraction of fractions.
Question 4 of 5
How many gallons are in 1,000 fluid ounces?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To convert fluid ounces to gallons, you need to divide the number of fluid ounces by the number of fluid ounces in a gallon. Since there are 128 fluid ounces in a gallon, to find out how many gallons are in 1,000 fluid ounces, you divide 1,000 by 128. The correct calculation is 1,000 / 128 = 7.8125 gallons. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not accurately represent the conversion from fluid ounces to gallons.
Question 5 of 5
How many kiloliters are in 147 liters?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To convert liters to kiloliters, divide by 1000 since there are 1000 liters in a kiloliter. Therefore, 147 liters = 0.147 kiloliters. Choice B is incorrect as it incorrectly moves the decimal point. Choices C and D are significantly larger than the correct answer, indicating an incorrect conversion factor used.
