TEAS Practice Test Math
1. Which of the following is the correct simplification of the expression below? 12 ÷ 3 × 4 - 1 + 23
- A. 6
- B. 21
- C. 38
- D. 23
Correct answer: C
Rationale: The correct order of operations dictates solving division and multiplication before addition and subtraction. Therefore, following the order: (12 ÷ 3) × 4 - 1 + 23 = 4 × 4 - 1 + 23 = 16 - 1 + 23 = 38. Choice A (6) results from adding and subtracting before division and multiplication. Choice B (21) results from incorrect placement of parentheses. Choice D (23) is the last number in the expression and does not reflect the cumulative result of the operations.
2. A patient requires a 30% increase in the dosage of their medication. Their current dosage is 270 mg. What will their dosage be after the increase?
- A. 81 mg
- B. 270 mg
- C. 300 mg
- D. 351 mg
Correct answer: D
Rationale: To calculate a 30% increase from the current dosage of 270 mg, first find 30% of 270, which is 81 mg. Add this 81 mg increase to the original dosage of 270 mg to get the new dosage, which is 351 mg (270 mg + 81 mg = 351 mg). Therefore, the correct answer is 351 mg. Choice A (81 mg) is incorrect because this value represents only the calculated 30% increase, not the total dosage after the increase. Choice B (270 mg) is the original dosage and does not account for the 30% increase. Choice C (300 mg) is close to the correct answer but does not consider the precise 30% increase calculation, leading to an incorrect total dosage.
3. Which of the following weights is equivalent to 3.193 kilograms?
- A. 3,193,000 grams
- B. 3,193 grams
- C. 319.3 grams
- D. 0.003193 grams
Correct answer: B
Rationale: To convert kilograms to grams, you need to remember that 1 kilogram is equal to 1,000 grams. Therefore, 3.193 kilograms is equivalent to 3,193 grams (3.193 kg * 1,000 g/kg = 3,193 g). Choice A (3,193,000 grams) incorrectly converts kilograms to milligrams, Choice C (319.3 grams) incorrectly moves the decimal point one place to the right, and Choice D (0.003193 grams) incorrectly converts kilograms to milligrams and then further to grams.
4. A recipe calls for 5.5 teaspoons of vanilla. 1 teaspoon equals approximately 4.93 mL. Which of the following is the correct amount of vanilla in mL?
- A. 10.2 mL
- B. 12 mL
- C. 7.43 mL
- D. 27 mL
Correct answer: D
Rationale: To convert the amount of vanilla from teaspoons to milliliters, we multiply the number of teaspoons by the conversion factor of 4.93 mL/teaspoon. 5.5 teaspoons * 4.93 mL/teaspoon = 27.115 mL, which rounds to 27 mL. Therefore, the correct amount of vanilla in mL is 27 mL. Choice A (10.2 mL), Choice B (12 mL), and Choice C (7.43 mL) are incorrect as they do not correctly convert the given amount of teaspoons to milliliters based on the provided conversion factor.
5. Elevation above sea level and temperature are negatively correlated variables. Which of the following statements describes the relationship between the variables?
- A. As elevation decreases, temperature remains the same
- B. As elevation decreases, temperature decreases
- C. As elevation increases, temperature decreases
- D. As elevation increases, temperature increases
Correct answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: 'As elevation increases, temperature decreases.' In a negative correlation, the variables move in opposite directions. As elevation rises, temperature tends to decrease. Choice A is incorrect because a negative correlation implies that as one variable increases, the other decreases. Choices B and D are incorrect because they suggest that temperature either remains the same or increases as elevation decreases or increases, which is inconsistent with a negative correlation.
