TEAS Practice Test Math

1. Two friends get frozen yogurt. The ratio of yogurt to toppings is 4:3. If one of the friends has 4.5 oz of toppings in their bowl, what is the amount of yogurt in their dessert?

A. 6 oz
B. 5.5 oz
C. 3 oz
D. 3.5 oz

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The ratio 4:3 implies that for every 4 oz of yogurt, there are 3 oz of toppings. To find the amount of yogurt when the friend has 4.5 oz of toppings, we use the proportion: (4/3) × 4.5 = 6 oz. Therefore, the amount of yogurt in their dessert is 6 oz. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not reflect the correct calculation based on the given ratio.

2. Which of the following is the decimal form of 87.5%?

A. 875
B. 8,750
C. 0.875
D. 8.75

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To convert a percentage to a decimal, you move the decimal point two places to the left. Therefore, 87.5% as a decimal is 0.875. Choice A (875) is incorrect as it represents the percentage without converting to a decimal. Choice B (8,750) is incorrect as it represents the percentage in whole numbers without decimal conversion. Choice D (8.75) is incorrect as it represents 875% instead of 87.5%.

3. If Hannah spends at least $16 on 4 packages of coffee, which of the following inequalities represents the possible costs?

A. 16 ≥ 4p
B. 16 < 4p
C. 16 > 4p
D. 16 ≤ 4p

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To represent the relationship between the number of packages of coffee and the minimum cost, the inequality can be written as 4p ≥ 16 (cost is at least $16). This inequality can also be expressed as 16 ≤ 4p, which reads as the cost being less than or equal to $16. Therefore, the correct answer is D. Choice A (16 ≥ 4p) implies that the cost can be greater than or equal to $16, which does not align with the statement that Hannah spends at least $16. Choice B (16 < 4p) suggests that the cost is less than $16, which contradicts the given information. Choice C (16 > 4p) indicates that the cost is greater than $16, which is not accurate based on the scenario provided.

4. What is the median of Pernell's scores (81, 92, 87, 89, and 94)?

A. 87
B. 89
C. 92
D. 94

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To find the median, we first need to arrange the scores in ascending order: 81, 87, 89, 92, 94. Since there are five scores, the middle score would be the third one, which is 89. Hence, the median of Pernell's scores is 89. Choice A (87) is incorrect because it is the second score in the ordered list, not the middle one. Choice C (92) and Choice D (94) are also incorrect as they are not positioned in the middle of the ordered series.

5. A cell has a diameter of 0.1 meter, and another cell has a diameter of 0.05 meters. How many times larger is the first cell compared to the second cell?

A. 2
B. 4
C. 8
D. 16

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To determine how many times larger the first cell is compared to the second cell, divide the diameter of the first cell by the diameter of the second cell: 0.1 / 0.05 = 2. Therefore, the first cell is 2 times larger than the second cell. Choice B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not provide the accurate calculation for the size difference between the two cells.
