TEAS Math Practice Test

1. A closet is filled with red, blue, and green shirts. If 1/4 of the shirts are green and 1/3 are red, what fraction of the shirts are blue?

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Let the total number of shirts be x. Given that 1/4 of the shirts are green and 1/3 are red, we have Green = x/4 and Red = x/3. To find the fraction of blue shirts, we subtract the fractions of green and red shirts from 1: Blue fraction = 1 - (1/4 + 1/3) = 1 - (3/12 + 4/12) = 1 - 7/12 = 5/12. Therefore, the fraction of blue shirts is 5/12. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately represent the fraction of blue shirts given the information provided.

2. What defines rational and irrational numbers?

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Rational numbers are those that can be written as a simple fraction, including whole numbers and decimals that either terminate or repeat. Irrational numbers, on the other hand, cannot be expressed as fractions. Choice B is incorrect because not all rational numbers necessarily terminate or repeat. Choice C is incorrect as it oversimplifies the concept of rational and irrational numbers by only considering whole numbers and decimals. Choice D is incorrect as it inaccurately defines rational and irrational numbers solely based on decimals terminating or repeating, excluding the broader category of fractions.

3. What is the result of (6.4)(2.8) ÷ 0.4? Which of the following is correct?

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To simplify the expression, first multiply 6.4 by 2.8 to get 17.92. Then, divide the result by 0.4 to find the final answer. Therefore, (6.4)(2.8) ÷ 0.4 equals 44.8. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not represent the correct result of the given expression.

4. Solve |x| = 10.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The absolute value of x is equal to 10 when x is either -10 or 10. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not satisfy the equation |x| = 10. For choice B, -11 and 11 do not satisfy the condition. Choices C and D also do not provide solutions that meet the equation's requirement.

5. Solve for x in the equation above: (x/y) - z = rw

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To solve for x, first, isolate x by moving the term involving x to one side of the equation. Begin by adding z to both sides of the equation to get (x/y) = rw + z. Then, multiply both sides by y to get x = y(rw + z), which simplifies to x = y(z + rw). Therefore, choice A is correct. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not correctly rearrange the terms in the equation to solve for x.
