TEAS Practice Test Math
1. A recipe calls for 0.375 cups of sugar, but you only want to make 0.625 of the recipe. How much sugar should you use?
- A. 1.125 cups
- B. 1.111 cups
- C. 0.6 cups
- D. 2.4 cups
Correct answer: C
Rationale: To find out how much sugar should be used when making 0.625 of the recipe, you need to multiply 0.375 (amount required for the full recipe) by 0.625 (proportion of the recipe you want to make). 0.375 * 0.625 = 0.234375. Therefore, you should use 0.234375 cups of sugar, which is equivalent to 0.6 cups. This is the correct answer. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not correctly calculate the adjusted amount of sugar needed based on the proportion of the recipe being made.
2. What is the approximate metric equivalent of 7 inches?
- A. 3.2 cm
- B. 2.8 cm
- C. 15.4 cm
- D. 17.8 cm
Correct answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: 17.8 cm. To convert inches to centimeters, you can use the conversion factor 1 inch = 2.54 cm. Therefore, 7 inches is equal to 7 * 2.54 = 17.78 cm, which rounds to 17.8 cm. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not correspond to the correct conversion of 7 inches to centimeters.
3. Which of the following is the greatest value?
- A. 43 ÷ 55
- B. 7 ÷ 5
- C. 0.729
- D. 73%
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.
4. 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.
5. What is a quotient?
- A. The result of dividing two numbers
- B. The result of multiplying two numbers
- C. The number left after subtraction
- D. The number remaining after a division
Correct answer: A
Rationale: A quotient is the result of dividing one number by another. Choice A is correct because it accurately defines a quotient as the outcome of a division operation. Choice B is incorrect because it describes the result of multiplying two numbers, not dividing them. Choice C is incorrect because it refers to the remainder of a subtraction operation, not a division. Choice D is incorrect because it mentions the number remaining after a division, which is typically referred to as the remainder and not the quotient.
