TEAS Math Questions Questions
Question 1 of 5
Out of 9 trips, a person chooses the longest route for 3 of them. What percentage of their trips is the longest route?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: To find the percentage of trips where the person chose the longest route, divide the number of longest route trips (3) by the total number of trips (9) and multiply by 100. This gives (3/9) * 100 = 33.33%, which can be rounded to 33%. Therefore, the correct answer is B. Choice A (0.25), C (0.5), and D (0.75) are incorrect because they do not accurately represent the percentage of trips where the longest route was chosen based on the given information.
Question 2 of 5
A study was conducted where patients were divided into three groups: 1/2 in Group Alpha, 1/3 in Group Beta, and 1/6 in Group Gamma. Which group is the smallest?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The smallest group is Group Gamma, which had 1/6 of the total number of patients. To determine the smallest group, compare the fractions representing the portions of patients in each group. 1/6 is smaller than 1/3 and 1/2, making Group Gamma the smallest. Group Alpha and Group Beta have larger fractions of patients, making them larger groups compared to Group Gamma.
Question 3 of 5
A person drives 300 miles at 60 mph, then another 200 miles at 80 mph, with a 30-minute break. How long does the trip take?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: To find the total time, we calculate the time taken for each segment: 300 miles at 60 mph = 300 miles · 60 mph = 5 hours; 200 miles at 80 mph = 200 miles · 80 mph = 2.5 hours. Adding these gives 5 hours + 2.5 hours = 7.5 hours. Converting the 30-minute break to hours (30 minutes · 60 = 0.5 hours), the total time taken is 7.5 hours + 0.5 hours = 8 hours. Therefore, the correct answer is not among the given choices. The rationale provided in the original question is incorrect as it does not account for the break time and has a calculation error in adding the individual times.
Question 4 of 5
If you pull an orange block from a bag of 3 orange, 5 green, and 4 purple blocks, what is the probability of consecutively pulling two more orange blocks without replacement?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: To calculate the probability of pulling two more orange blocks consecutively without replacement after the initial orange block is pulled, we need to multiply the probabilities. After the first orange block is pulled, there are 2 orange blocks left out of a total of 11 blocks remaining. So, the probability of pulling a second orange block is 2/11. Therefore, the overall probability is (3/12) * (2/11) = 3/55. Choice A (1/12) is incorrect because it only considers the probability of the first orange block being pulled. Choice C (1/55) is incorrect as it represents the probability of pulling two orange blocks in a row, not the consecutive pulls after the initial pull. Choice D (2/33) is incorrect as it does not reflect the correct calculation for the consecutive pulls of orange blocks.
Question 5 of 5
Which of the following equations correctly models the relationship between x and y when y is three times x?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct equation that models the relationship between x and y when y is three times x is y = 3x. This equation represents that y is equal to three times x. Choice B (x = 3y) incorrectly reverses the relationship, stating that x is equal to three times y. Choice C (y = x + 3) and Choice D (y = x / 3) do not correctly represent a relationship where y is three times x, making them incorrect choices.
