TEAS Math Practice Test
1. At the beginning of the day, Xavier has 20 apples. At lunch, he meets his sister Emma and gives her half of his apples. After lunch, he stops by his neighbor Jim's house and gives him 6 of his apples. He then uses 3/4 of his remaining apples to make an apple pie for dessert at dinner. At the end of the day, how many apples does Xavier have left?
- A. 4
- B. 6
- C. 2
- D. 1
Correct answer: D
Rationale: Xavier gives away half of his 20 apples (10), then gives 6 more apples, leaving him with 4 apples. He uses 3/4 of the remaining 4 apples (3) for the pie, leaving him with 1 apple at the end of the day. Therefore, the correct answer is 1. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not accurately reflect the calculations of apples given away and used for the pie, resulting in the remaining amount of 1 apple.
2. If Stella's current weight is 56 kilograms, which of the following is her approximate weight in pounds? (Note: 1 kilogram is approximately equal to 2.2 pounds.)
- A. 123 pounds
- B. 110 pounds
- C. 156 pounds
- D. 137 pounds
Correct answer: A
Rationale: To convert Stella's weight from kilograms to pounds, you multiply her weight in kilograms (56) by the conversion factor (2.2): 56 × 2.2 = 123.2 pounds. Since we need to find the approximate weight in pounds, the closest option is 123 pounds, making choice A the correct answer. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not reflect the accurate conversion of Stella's weight from kilograms to pounds.
3. On a floor plan drawn at a scale of 1:100, the area of a rectangular room is 50 cm². What is the actual area of the room?
- A. 500 m²
- B. 50 m²
- C. 5000 cm²
- D. 500 cm²
Correct answer: D
Rationale: The scale of 1:100 means that 1 cm² on the floor plan represents 100 cm² in real life. To find the actual area of the room, you need to multiply the area on the floor plan by the square of the scale factor. Since the scale is 1:100, the scale factor is 100. Therefore, 50 cm² on the floor plan represents 50 * 100 = 5000 cm² in real life. Choice A (500 m²) is incorrect as it converts the area from cm² to m² without considering the scale factor. Choice B (50 m²) is incorrect as it does not account for the scale factor. Choice C (5000 cm²) is incorrect as it gives the area on the floor plan, not the actual area.
4. What is the simplest way to write the following expression? 5x - 2y + 4x + y
- A. 9x - y
- B. 9x - 3y
- C. 9x + 3y
- D. x; y
Correct answer: A
Rationale: To simplify the given expression 5x - 2y + 4x + y, we combine like terms. Grouping the x terms together and the y terms together, we have 5x + 4x - 2y + y. Combining like terms results in 9x - y. Therefore, the simplest form of the expression is 9x - y, which corresponds to option A. Option B is incorrect because it incorrectly subtracts 3y instead of just y. Option C is incorrect because it adds 3y instead of subtracting y. Option D is incorrect as it separates x and y with a semicolon instead of an operation, providing no simplified expression.
5. Simplify the following expression:
- A. 1 9/16
- B. 1 1/4
- C. 2 1/8
- D. 2
Correct answer: A
Rationale: To simplify the given expression, start by performing the division first: (2/3) ÷ (4/15) = (2/3) × (15/4) = 30/12 = 5/2. Next, multiply this result by 5/8: 5/2 × 5/8 = 25/16 = 1 9/16. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Choice B (1 1/4) is incorrect as it does not match the simplified result. Choice C (2 1/8) is incorrect as it does not represent the simplified expression. Choice D (2) is incorrect as it does not account for the fractions in the original expression.
