TEAS Practice Test Math Questions
Question 1 of 5
Based on their prescribing habits, a set of doctors was divided into three groups: 1/4 of the doctors were placed in Group X because they always prescribed medication. 1/3 of the doctors were placed in Group Y because they never prescribed medication. 1/6 of the doctors were placed in Group Z because they sometimes prescribed medication. Order the groups from largest to smallest, according to the number of doctors in each group.
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Compare and order the groups based on the fractions provided.
Question 2 of 5
A gumball machine contains red, orange, yellow, green, and blue gumballs. Twenty percent of the gumballs are red, 30% are orange, 5% are yellow, 10% are green, and the rest are blue. If there are a total of 120 gumballs, how many more blue gumballs are there than yellow gumballs?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The percentage of blue gumballs is 35% (100% - 20% - 30% - 5% - 10% = 35%). If there are 120 gumballs, 35% of that is 42 blue gumballs. Since 5% are yellow gumballs, which is 6 gumballs, the difference between 42 blue gumballs and 6 yellow gumballs is 36 more blue gumballs. Therefore, the correct answer is 36. Choice A (48) is incorrect as it miscalculates the difference. Choice B (30) is incorrect as it does not consider the correct percentage of blue gumballs. Choice C (42) is incorrect as it miscalculates the difference between blue and yellow gumballs.
Question 3 of 5
Which of the following is the decimal form of 87.5%?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: To convert a percentage to a decimal, you move the decimal point two places to the left. Therefore, 87.5% as a decimal is 0.875. Choice A (875) is incorrect as it represents the percentage without converting to a decimal. Choice B (8,750) is incorrect as it represents the percentage in whole numbers without decimal conversion. Choice D (8.75) is incorrect as it represents 875% instead of 87.5%.
Question 4 of 5
A soccer field is rectangular in shape and is 100 meters long and 75 meters wide. The hectare is a metric unit of area often used to measure larger areas. Given that 1 hectare = 10,000 square meters, which of the following represents the soccer field's area in hectares?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To find the area of the soccer field, multiply its length by its width: 100 meters 75 meters = 7500 square meters. To convert this to hectares, divide by 10,000 (since 1 hectare = 10,000 square meters), resulting in 0.75 hectares. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not correctly convert the area to hectares. B and C are off by a factor of 10, while D is off by a factor of 10,000.
Question 5 of 5
To rent tablecloths from a rental vendor, there is an initial charge of $40. There is an additional charge of $5 per circular tablecloth (c) and $3.50 per rectangular tablecloth (r). Which of the following represents the total cost (T) to rent tablecloths?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The total cost (T) consists of the initial charge of $40 plus the additional charges based on the number of tablecloths. The correct expression for T is T = 5c + 3.5r + 40. This accounts for the $5 per circular tablecloth (5c), $3.50 per rectangular tablecloth (3.5r), and the initial $40 charge. Choice A is incorrect as it subtracts the initial charge instead of adding it. Choice C is also incorrect as it subtracts the initial charge and has the coefficients in the wrong positions. Choice D adds the initial charge at the end instead of at the beginning, making it incorrect. Therefore, choice B is the correct representation of the total cost to rent tablecloths.
