TEAS Test Sample Math Questions Questions
Question 1 of 5
Divide 4/3 by 9/13 and reduce the fraction.
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To divide fractions, you multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction. So, (4/3) · (9/13) = (4/3) * (13/9) = 52/27. This fraction is already in its reduced form, making choice A the correct answer. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not represent the correct result of dividing the fractions 4/3 by 9/13.
Question 2 of 5
In the problem 6 + 3 2, which operation should be completed first?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is 'Multiplication.' According to the order of operations (PEMDAS), which stands for Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (from left to right), multiplication should be completed first. In the given expression, 3 2 should be solved before adding 6 to the result. This means that the multiplication operation should be prioritized over addition. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because, in the order of operations, multiplication takes precedence over addition, division, and subtraction, respectively.
Question 3 of 5
Express as an improper fraction: 8 3/7
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: To convert the mixed number 8 3/7 to an improper fraction, multiply the whole number (8) by the denominator (7) and add the numerator (3) to get the numerator of the improper fraction. This gives us (8*7 + 3) / 7 = 59/7. Therefore, the correct answer is 59/7. Choice A (11/7), choice B (21/8), and choice C (5/3) are incorrect because they do not correctly convert the mixed number to an improper fraction.
Question 4 of 5
Round to the nearest tenth: 8.067.
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: When rounding a number to the nearest tenth, you look at the digit in the hundredths place. Since 8.067 has a 6 in the hundredths place, which is equal to or greater than 5, you round the tenths place up by 1. Therefore, rounding 8.067 to the nearest tenth gives 8.07. Choice B (8.1) would be incorrect because 8.067 is closer to 8.1 than to 8, but it's not quite there. Choice C (8) is incorrect as it would be rounding down, and Choice D (8.11) is incorrect as it is rounding to the nearest hundredth, not the nearest tenth.
Question 5 of 5
The phone bill is calculated each month using the equation y = 50x. The cost of the phone bill per month is represented by y and x represents the gigabytes of data used that month. What is the value and interpretation of the slope of this equation?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The slope of the equation y = 50x is 50, which means that for each additional gigabyte of data used, the cost increases by 50 dollars. Therefore, the interpretation of the slope is that it represents the cost per gigabyte, making '50 dollars per gigabyte' the correct answer. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not reflect the relationship between the cost and the amount of data used in the given equation.
