ATI TEAS Math Practice Test
1. Arrange the following numbers from least to greatest: 7/3, 9/2, 10/9, 7/8
- A. 10/9, 7/3, 9/2, 7/8
- B. 9/2, 7/3, 10/9, 7/8
- C. 7/3, 9/2, 10/9, 7/8
- D. 7/8, 10/9, 7/3, 9/2
Correct answer: D
Rationale: To arrange the numbers from least to greatest, first convert them to decimals: 1. 7/3 is approximately 2.33 2. 9/2 equals 4.5 3. 10/9 is approximately 1.11 4. 7/8 equals 0.875 Now, arrange the decimals from least to greatest: 0.875 (7/8), 1.11 (10/9), 2.33 (7/3), 4.5 (9/2). Therefore, the correct order is 7/8, 10/9, 7/3, 9/2. Choice A is incorrect because it doesn't follow the correct order. Choice B is incorrect as it places 9/2 before 7/3, which is not the right arrangement. Choice C is incorrect as it places 7/3 before 9/2 and 10/9, which is incorrect. Thus, the correct answer is choice D.
2. Juan wishes to compare the percentages of time he spends on different tasks during the workday. Which of the following representations is the most appropriate choice for displaying the data?
- A. Line plot
- B. Bar graph
- C. Line graph
- D. Pie chart
Correct answer: D
Rationale: A pie chart is the most appropriate choice for displaying the percentages of time spent on different tasks during the workday because it visually represents parts of a whole. In this case, each task's percentage represents a part of the entire workday, making a pie chart an ideal way to compare these percentages. Line plots, bar graphs, and line graphs are not suitable for showing percentages of a whole; they are more commonly used for tracking trends, comparing values, or showing relationships between variables but do not efficiently represent parts of a whole like a pie chart does.
3. What is the result of the expression 102 – 7(3 – 4) – 25? Which of the following is correct?
- A. -12
- B. 2
- C. 68
- D. 82
Correct answer: D
Rationale: To simplify the expression, we follow the order of operations (PEMDAS): Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (from left to right). First, solve inside the parentheses: 3 - 4 = -1. Then, multiply -1 by 7: -1 * 7 = -7. Now, substitute these values back into the expression: 102 - (-7) - 25 = 102 + 7 - 25 = 109 - 25 = 84. Therefore, the correct answer is 84. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not represent the correct simplification of the given expression.
4. Simplify (x^2 - y^2) / (x - y)
- A. x + y
- B. x - y
- C. 1
- D. (x + y)/(x - y)
Correct answer: A
Rationale: The expression 𝑥^2 - 𝑦^2 is a difference of squares, which follows the identity: 𝑥^2 - 𝑦^2 = (𝑥 + 𝑦)(𝑥 - 𝑦). Therefore, the given expression becomes: (𝑥^2 - 𝑦^2) / (𝑥 - 𝑦) = (𝑥 + 𝑦)(𝑥 - 𝑦) / (𝑥 - 𝑦). Since (𝑥 - 𝑦) appears in both the numerator and the denominator, they cancel each other out, leaving 𝑥 + 𝑦. Thus, the simplified form of (𝑥^2 - 𝑦^2) / (𝑥 - 𝑦) is 𝑥 + 𝑦. Therefore, the correct answer is A (x + y). Option B (x - y) is incorrect as it does not result from simplifying the given expression. Option C (1) is incorrect as it does not account for the variables x and y present in the expression. Option D ((x + y)/(x - y)) is incorrect as it presents the simplified form in a different format than the correct answer.
5. If 1 inch on a map represents 60 ft, how many yards apart are two points if the distance between the points on the map is 10 inches?
- A. 1800
- B. 600
- C. 200
- D. 2
Correct answer: B
Rationale: If 1 inch on the map represents 60 ft, then for 10 inches on the map, the actual distance would be 10 inches x 60 ft = 600 ft. To convert this to yards, we know that 1 yard equals 3 feet. Therefore, the distance between the two points is 600 ft / 3 ft/yard = 200 yards. Choice A (1800) is incorrect because it incorrectly multiplies by 10 again instead of converting to yards. Choice C (200) is incorrect because it fails to adjust the measurement from feet to yards. Choice D (2) is incorrect as it does not consider the correct conversion factor from feet to yards.
