TEAS Test Math Questions
1. Jayden rides his bike for 5/8 miles. He takes a break and rides another 3/4 miles. How many miles does he ride?
- A. 1 3/8 miles
- B. 1 1/2 miles
- C. 1 7/8 miles
- D. 2 miles
Correct answer: A
Rationale: To find the total distance Jayden rides, you need to add the fractions 5/8 + 3/4. To add these fractions, you must ensure they have a common denominator. In this case, the common denominator is 8. So, 5/8 + 3/4 = 5/8 + 6/8 = 11/8. Since 11/8 can be simplified to 1 3/8, Jayden rides a total of 1 3/8 miles. Choice B (1 1/2 miles), Choice C (1 7/8 miles), and Choice D (2 miles) are incorrect as they do not accurately represent the total distance calculated by adding the two fractions, which is 1 3/8 miles.
2. What is the area of a triangle with a base of 10 cm and a height of 7 cm?
- A. 70 cm²
- B. 35 cm²
- C. 140 cm²
- D. 100 cm²
Correct answer: B
Rationale: To find the area of a triangle, you use the formula A = 1/2 × base × height. Substituting the given values: A = 1/2 × 10 cm × 7 cm = 35 cm². Therefore, the correct answer is B. Choice A (70 cm²) is incorrect as it seems to be the product of the base and height rather than the area formula. Choice C (140 cm²) is incorrect as it appears to be twice the correct answer, possibly a result of a miscalculation. Choice D (100 cm²) is incorrect as it does not reflect the correct calculation based on the given base and height values.
3. A farmer plans to install fencing around a certain field. If each side of the hexagonal field is 320 feet long, and fencing costs $75 per foot, how much will the farmer need to spend on fencing material to enclose the perimeter of the field?
- A. $2,240
- B. $2,800
- C. $3,360
- D. $4,480
Correct answer: C
Rationale: The field is a hexagon with six equal sides, each 320 feet long. To find the total cost of fencing material needed, multiply the cost per foot ($75) by the total perimeter of the field (6 sides x 320 feet). Therefore, the total cost will be $75 x 6 x 320 = $3,360. Thus, the farmer will need to spend $3,360 on fencing material. Choice A, $2,240, is incorrect as it does not account for the total perimeter of the field. Choice B, $2,800, is incorrect as it underestimates the total cost by not considering all sides of the hexagon. Choice D, $4,480, is incorrect as it overestimates the total cost by multiplying incorrectly or considering extra sides.
4. Dr. Lee observed that 30% of all his patients developed an infection after taking a certain antibiotic. He further noticed that 5% of those 30% required hospitalization to recover from the infection. What percentage of Dr. Lee's patients were hospitalized after taking the antibiotic?
- A. 1.50%
- B. 5%
- C. 15%
- D. 30%
Correct answer: C
Rationale: Out of all the patients who took the antibiotic, 30% developed an infection. Among those with infections, 5% required hospitalization. To find the percentage of all patients hospitalized, we multiply the two percentages: 30% * 5% = 1.5%. Therefore, 1.5% of all patients were hospitalized. Choice A (1.50%) is the calculated percentage of all patients hospitalized, not 1.50%. Choice B (5%) is the percentage of patients who developed an infection and required hospitalization, not all patients. Choice D (30%) represents the initial percentage of patients who developed an infection, not the percentage hospitalized.
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.
