TEAS Test Sample Math Questions Questions

Question 1 of 9

What is the result of adding 1/6 and 1/2, expressed in reduced form?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale of 500+ characters after 5 retries.

Question 2 of 9

What is the domain for the function f(x)=2x+5?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The domain of a function represents all possible input values that the function can accept. In this case, the function f(x)=2x+5 is a linear function, and linear functions have a domain of all real numbers. This means that any real number can be substituted for x in the function f(x)=2x+5, making choice A, 'All real numbers,' the correct domain for this function. Choices B, C, and D, restrict the domain unnecessarily by limiting the values of x to specific subsets of real numbers, which does not accurately reflect the nature of the given function.

Question 3 of 9

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 4 of 9

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 5 of 9

What is the result of adding 1/6 and 1/2, expressed in reduced form?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale of 500+ characters after 5 retries.

Question 6 of 9

Four people split a bill. The first person pays 1/5, the second person pays 1/3, and the third person pays 1/12. What fraction of the bill does the fourth person pay?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To find the fourth person's share, subtract the fractions paid by the first three people from the total bill (1). The first person pays 1/5, the second person pays 1/3, and the third person pays 1/12. Adding these fractions gives 7/15. Subtracting this from 1 gives the fourth person's share as 8/15, which simplifies to 4/5. Therefore, the fourth person pays 4/5 of the bill. Option A (1/4) is incorrect because it does not consider the fractions paid by the first three people. Option B (13/60) is incorrect as it is not the remainder after subtracting the first three fractions from 1. Option D (1/4) is a duplicate of Option A and is also incorrect.

Question 7 of 9

How should 0.80 be written as a percent?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale of 500+ characters after 5 retries.

Question 8 of 9

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 9 of 9

A closet is filled with red, blue, and green shirts. If 2/5 of the shirts are green and 1/3 are red, what fraction of the shirts are blue?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To find the fraction of blue shirts, subtract the fractions of green and red shirts from 1. Green shirts are 2/5 and red shirts are 1/3, which sum up to 11/15. Therefore, blue shirts would be 1 - 11/15 = 4/15. So, the correct answer is 4/15. Choice A (4/15) is incorrect as it represents the overall fraction of green shirts. Choice B (1/5) is incorrect as it does not account for the fractions of green and red shirts. Choice D (1/2) is incorrect as it does not consider the given fractions of green and red shirts.
