ATI TEAS Math Practice Test
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. What is the median of the data set below: 5, -3, 10, -2, 0?
- A. 10
- B. 0
- C. 5
- D. 2
Correct answer: B
Rationale: To find the median, we first need to arrange the data set in ascending order: -3, -2, 0, 5, 10. The median is the middle value in the ordered set. As there are 5 numbers, the middle value is the third number, which is 0. Therefore, the correct answer is 0. Choice A (10) and Choice D (2) are not correct because they are not the middle values once the data set is ordered. Choice C (5) is also incorrect as it is not the middle value in the ordered data set.
4. What is the equivalent weight in pounds for 45 kg? (1 kg = 2.2 lbs)
- A. 120 lbs
- B. 89 lbs
- C. 99 lbs
- D. 90 lbs
Correct answer: C
Rationale: To convert kilograms to pounds, multiply the weight in kilograms by the conversion factor 2.2 (1 kg = 2.2 lbs). Therefore, 45 kg * 2.2 lbs/kg = 99 lbs. Choice A is incorrect because it is a miscalculation. Choice B is incorrect as it does not reflect the correct conversion. Choice D is incorrect as it is also a miscalculation of the conversion.
5. Jessica buys 10 cans of paint. Red paint costs $1 per can, and blue paint costs $2 per can. In total, she spends $16. How many red cans did she buy?
- A. 2
- B. 3
- C. 4
- D. 5
Correct answer: C
Rationale: Let r be the number of red cans and b be the number of blue cans. The total cans equation is r + b = 10. The total cost equation is r + 2b = 16. By solving these equations simultaneously, we find r = 4. Therefore, Jessica bought 4 red cans. Choice A, 2 red cans, is incorrect because it does not satisfy the total cans or total cost condition. Choices B and D are also incorrect as they do not fulfill both conditions simultaneously.
