ATI TEAS Math Practice Test Questions
Question 1 of 5
What is the probability of flipping a coin and getting heads?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: 1/2. When flipping a fair coin, there are two possible outcomes: heads or tails. The probability of getting heads is 1 out of 2 possible outcomes, which can be expressed as 1/2. Choice B, 1/3, is incorrect because a fair coin only has two sides. Choices C and D, 1/4 and 1/5, are also incorrect as they do not represent the correct probability of getting heads when flipping a coin.
Question 2 of 5
Curtis is taking a road trip through Germany, where all distance signs are in metric. He passes a sign that states the city of Dusseldorf is 45 kilometers away. Approximately how far is this in miles?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: To convert kilometers to miles, you can use the conversion factor of approximately 0.62 miles per kilometer. Therefore, 45 kilometers 0.62 miles/kilometer = 27.9 miles, which is approximately 28 miles away. Choice A (42 miles), Choice B (37 miles), and Choice D (16 miles) are incorrect as they do not reflect the accurate conversion from kilometers to miles.
Question 3 of 5
Pernell received the following scores on five exams: 81, 92, 87, 89, and 94. What is the approximate average of these scores?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale of 500+ characters after 5 retries.
Question 4 of 5
Simplify the following expression:
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To simplify the given expression, start by performing the division first: (2/3) · (4/15) = (2/3) (15/4) = 30/12 = 5/2. Next, multiply this result by 5/8: 5/2 5/8 = 25/16 = 1 9/16. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choice B (1 1/4) is incorrect as it does not match the simplified result. Choice C (2 1/8) is incorrect as it does not represent the simplified expression. Choice D (2) is incorrect as it does not account for the fractions in the original expression.
Question 5 of 5
Solve for x: 4(2x - 6) = 10x - 6
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: To solve the equation 4(2x - 6) = 10x - 6, first distribute 4 into the parentheses: 8x - 24 = 10x - 6. Next, simplify the equation by rearranging terms: 8x - 10x = -6 + 24, which gives -2x = 18. Solving for x by dividing by -2 on both sides gives x = -9. Therefore, the correct answer is x = -9. Choice A (x = 5), Choice B (x = -7), and Choice D (x = 10) are incorrect solutions obtained by errors in solving the equation.
