TEAS Math Practice Test
1. What is the volume of a cube with a side length of 3 cm?
- A. 9 cm³
- B. 27 cm³
- C. 18 cm³
- D. 12 cm³
Correct answer: B
Rationale: To find the volume of a cube, you cube the length of one side. In this case, the side length is 3 cm, so the volume is calculated as 3 cm * 3 cm * 3 cm = 27 cm³. Therefore, the correct answer is 27 cm³. Choice A (9 cm³), Choice C (18 cm³), and Choice D (12 cm³) are incorrect as they do not correctly calculate the volume of a cube with a side length of 3 cm.
2. Jerry needs to load four pieces of equipment onto a factory elevator that has a weight limit of 800 pounds. Jerry weighs 200 pounds. What would be the average weight of each item so that the elevator's weight limit is not exceeded?
- A. 128 pounds
- B. 150 pounds
- C. 175 pounds
- D. 180 pounds
Correct answer: B
Rationale: To find the average weight per item, subtract Jerry's weight from the elevator's weight limit: 800 - 200 = 600 pounds. Since there are 4 items, divide 600 by 4 to determine that each item should weigh 150 pounds. Choice A (128 pounds), C (175 pounds), and D (180 pounds) are incorrect as they do not correctly calculate the average weight per item to ensure the elevator's weight limit is not exceeded.
3. What defines a proper fraction versus an improper fraction?
- A. Proper: numerator < denominator; Improper: numerator > denominator
- B. Proper: numerator > denominator; Improper: numerator < denominator
- C. Proper: numerator = denominator; Improper: numerator < denominator
- D. Proper: numerator < denominator; Improper: numerator = denominator
Correct answer: A
Rationale: A proper fraction is characterized by having a numerator smaller than the denominator, while an improper fraction has a numerator larger than the denominator. Therefore, choice A is correct. Choice B is incorrect because it states the opposite relationship between the numerator and denominator for proper and improper fractions. Choice C is incorrect as it describes a fraction where the numerator is equal to the denominator, which is a different concept. Choice D is incorrect as it associates a numerator being smaller than the denominator with an improper fraction, which is inaccurate.
4. The length of a rectangle is 3 units greater than its width. Which expression correctly represents the perimeter of the rectangle?
- A. 2W + 2(W + 3)
- B. W + W + 3
- C. W(W + 3)
- D. 2W + 2(3W)
Correct answer: A
Rationale: To find the perimeter of a rectangle, you add up all its sides. In this case, the length is 3 units greater than the width, so the length can be expressed as W + 3. The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is 2W + 2(L), where L represents the length. Substituting W + 3 for L, the correct expression for the perimeter becomes 2W + 2(W + 3), which simplifies to 2W + 2W + 6 or 4W + 6. Choices B, C, and D do not correctly represent the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle. Choice B simply adds the width twice to 3, neglecting the length. Choice C multiplies the width by the sum of the width and 3, which is incorrect. Choice D combines the width and 3 times the width, which is not the correct formula for the perimeter of a rectangle.
5. Margery plans a vacation with costs for airfare, hotel (5 nights), sightseeing, and meals. If she receives a 10% discount on additional hotel nights, what will she spend?
- A. 1328.35
- B. 1373.5
- C. 1381.4
- D. 1417.6
Correct answer: A
Rationale: To calculate Margery's total cost, we first need to find the cost without the discount. Let's say the original cost is x. With a 10% discount, she saves 10% of the cost of additional hotel nights. Since she is staying for 5 nights, the discount applies to 4 additional nights (5 - 1 night already included). Therefore, she saves 10% of 4 nights' cost. If x is the cost of 1 night, the total cost without discount is 5x. With the 10% discount, she saves 0.1 * 4x = 0.4x. So, the cost after discount is 5x - 0.4x = 4.6x. Given that the total cost is 5x for 5 nights, we can equate 5x to 4.6x to find x. Solving for x, we get x = Total cost / 5 = 5x / 5 = 4.6x / 5. Therefore, x = 4.6x / 5, which simplifies to x = 0.92 * 5x. This means 1 night's cost is 0.92 times the total cost for 5 nights. Given the total cost is $1328.35, we find the cost for 1 night is $1328.35 / 5 = $265.67. So, Margery will spend $1328.35 for her vacation.
