TEAS Test Sample Math Questions
1. What is the result of adding 1/6 and 1/2, expressed in reduced form?
- A. 9/7
 - B. 1/3
 - C. 31/36
 - D. 3/5
 
Correct answer: B
Rationale: To add 1/6 and 1/2, you need a common denominator, which is 6. So, 1/6 + 3/6 = 4/6. Simplifying 4/6 gives 2/3, which is the correct answer (1/3). Choices A, C, and D are incorrect as they do not represent the correct sum of the fractions 1/6 and 1/2.
2. 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.
3. A sandwich shop earns $4 for every sandwich (s) it sells, $2 for every drink (d), and $1 for every cookie (c). If this is all the shop sells, which of the following equations represents what the shop’s revenue (r) is over three days?
- A. r = 4s + 2d + 1c
 - B. r = 8s + 4d + 2c
 - C. r = 12s + 6d + 3c
 - D. r = 16s + 8d + 4c
 
Correct answer: A
Rationale: Let s be the number of sandwiches sold. Each sandwich earns $4, so selling s sandwiches at $4 each results in revenue of $4s. Similarly, d drinks at $2 each give $2d of income, and cookies bring in $1c. Summing these values gives total revenue = 4s + 2d + 1c. Therefore, option A, r = 4s + 2d + 1c, correctly represents the shop's revenue. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they incorrectly multiply the prices of each item by more than one day's sales, which would overstate the total revenue for a three-day period.
4. A store offers a 15% discount on all items. If an item costs $100, what is the price after the discount?
- A. 90
 - B. 85
 - C. 80
 - D. 75
 
Correct answer: B
Rationale: To calculate the price after the 15% discount on a $100 item, you first find 15% of $100, which is $15. Then, subtract $15 from the original price: $100 - $15 = $85. Therefore, the correct answer is $85. Choice A ($90), Choice C ($80), and Choice D ($75) are incorrect as they do not reflect the correct calculation of applying a 15% discount to the original $100 price.
5. Solve for x: 3(x - 5) = 2(x + 3)
- A. x = 3
 - B. x = 6
 - C. x = 9
 - D. x = 12
 
Correct answer: A
Rationale: To solve the equation 3(x - 5) = 2(x + 3) for x, start by distributing the terms inside the parentheses. This gives you 3x - 15 = 2x + 6. Next, combine like terms by moving all terms with x to one side and the constants to the other side. Subtracting 2x from both sides gives x - 15 = 6. Finally, adding 15 to both sides results in x = 21. Therefore, the correct answer is A: x = 3. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not result from the correct calculations of the equation.
