TEAS Practice Test Math
1. What is the result when the number 1 is raised to ANY power?
- A. One
- B. Itself
- C. Zero
- D. Two
Correct answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: 'One.' When the number 1 is raised to any power, the result is always 1. This is a fundamental mathematical property where any number raised to the power of 0 equals 1. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect. Choice B 'Itself' is vague and does not provide a clear mathematical result. Choice C 'Zero' is incorrect as 1 raised to any power is not zero. Choice D 'Two' is incorrect as the result of raising 1 to any power is always 1, not 2.
2. How many quarts are in a gallon?
- A. 1 quart
- B. 2 quarts
- C. 3 quarts
- D. 4 quarts
Correct answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D, which is 4 quarts in a gallon. In the US customary system, there are 4 quarts in a gallon. Choice A is incorrect as it represents the equivalent of a quart, not a gallon. Choice B and C are incorrect as they are smaller quantities than a gallon and do not match the conversion of quarts to a gallon.
3. What is the average length of a human eyelash?
- A. 1 nanometer
- B. 1 centimeter
- C. 1 meter
- D. 1 kilometer
Correct answer: B
Rationale: The average length of a human eyelash is approximately one centimeter. A nanometer is too small to describe the length of an eyelash. A meter and a kilometer are much longer lengths and not suitable to describe the average human eyelash.
4. What was the mean time for the women who ran the 200m event at the 2008 Olympic Games (times in seconds: 22.33, 22.50, 22.50, 22.61, 22.71, 22.72, 22.83, 23.22)?
- A. 22.50 sec
- B. 22.66 sec
- C. 22.68 sec
- D. 22.77 sec
Correct answer: C
Rationale: To find the mean time, you need to add all the times (22.33 + 22.50 + 22.50 + 22.61 + 22.71 + 22.72 + 22.83 + 23.22) and then divide by the total number of times (8). This calculation results in a mean time of 22.68 seconds. Choice A, 22.50 sec, is incorrect because it is the time of one of the runners, not the mean time. Choice B, 22.66 sec, and Choice D, 22.77 sec, are also incorrect as they are not the calculated mean of the given times.
5. Based on a favorable performance review at work, Matt receives a 3/20 increase in his hourly wage. If his original hourly wage is represented by w, which of the following represents his new wage?
- A. 0.15w
- B. 0.85w
- C. 1.12w
- D. 1.15w
Correct answer: D
Rationale: To calculate Matt's new wage after a 3/20 increase, we need to add this percentage increase to his original wage. The increase in decimal form is 3/20 = 0.15. Therefore, the new wage is w + w(0.15) = w(1 + 0.15) = 1.15w. This means the correct answer is D. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not account for the full 3/20 increase in the wage. Choice A (0.15w) represents only the increase percentage, not the total new wage. Choice B (0.85w) and Choice C (1.12w) do not accurately calculate the new wage after the increase, leading to incorrect representations of the final wage.
