TEAS Practice Test Math Questions
Question 1 of 5
Which of the following is the correct decimal placement for the product of 1.6 * 0.93?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: To find the product of 1.6 * 0.93, you multiply these two numbers to get 1.488. Therefore, the correct decimal placement for the product is 1.488. Choice A, 14.88, is incorrect as it incorrectly places the decimal two spots to the right. Choice B, 0.1488, is incorrect as it incorrectly places the decimal one spot to the right. Choice D, 0.001488, is incorrect as it incorrectly places the decimal three spots to the right.
Question 2 of 5
In a class of 48 students, there are 22 boys and 26 girls. What is the ratio of girls to boys in the class?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: To find the ratio of girls to boys, divide the number of girls by the number of boys: 26/22 = 13/11. Therefore, the correct ratio is 13:11. Choice A is incorrect as it includes an extra '00'. Choice C is incorrect as it reverses the order of girls to boys. Choice D is incorrect as it reverses the order and provides the ratio of boys to girls.
Question 3 of 5
3(x-2)=12. Solve the equation above for x. Which of the following is the correct answer?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To solve the equation 3(x-2)=12, first distribute the 3: 3x - 6 = 12. Next, isolate x by adding 6 to both sides: 3x = 18. Finally, divide by 3 to find x: x = 6. Therefore, the correct answer is A (6). Choice B (-2) is incorrect as it does not satisfy the equation. Choice C (-4) is also incorrect as it does not satisfy the equation. Choice D (2) is incorrect as it does not satisfy the equation either.
Question 4 of 5
If x represents the width of a rectangle and the length is six less than two times the width, which of the following expressions represents the length of the rectangle in terms of x?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To find the expression representing the length of the rectangle in terms of x, we need to consider that the length is six less than two times the width. If we denote the width as x, the length can be expressed as 2x - 6. Therefore, the correct expression is 2x-6 (choice A). Choice B, 6-2x, represents the width subtracted from 6, not the length. Choice C, 6x-2, is not derived from the given information about the relationship between the width and length. Choice D, 3x-4, is not consistent with the relationship provided in the question.
Question 5 of 5
Which of the following is the greatest value?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: To determine the greatest value among the choices, you need to convert all options to a common format. In this case, converting fractions to decimals will help compare them. When 7 · 5 is calculated, it equals 1.4, which is greater than 0.729 (choice C) and 0.78 (choice A when rounded). The percentage 73% (choice D) is equivalent to 0.73, making 7 · 5 the largest value. Therefore, the correct answer is B. Choice A is smaller than B, as 43 · 55 equals approximately 0.78. Choice C is smaller than B, as 0.729 is less than 1.4. Choice D is smaller than B, as 73% is equal to 0.73, which is less than 1.4.
