TEAS Math Practice Test
1. When rounding 245.2678 to the nearest thousandth, which place value would be used to decide whether to round up or round down?
- A. Ten-thousandths
- B. Thousandths
- C. Hundredths
- D. Thousand
Correct answer: A
Rationale: When rounding a number to the nearest thousandth, you look at the digit in the ten-thousandths place to determine whether to round up or down the digit in the thousandths place. In this case, rounding 245.2678 to the nearest thousandth, the digit in the ten-thousandths place is 6, which is greater than or equal to 5, so you would round up the digit in the thousandths place. Therefore, the correct answer is the ten-thousandths place. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not directly influence the rounding of the thousandths place in this scenario.
2. If 9.5% of a town's population of 51,623 people voted for a proposition, approximately how many people voted for the proposition?
- A. 3000
- B. 5000
- C. 7000
- D. 10000
Correct answer: B
Rationale: To find the approximate number of people who voted for the proposition, multiply the town's population by the percentage that voted: 51,623 * 9.5% = 51,623 * 0.095 ≈ 4,904. Therefore, approximately 5,000 people voted for the proposition. Choice A (3000), C (7000), and D (10000) are incorrect because they do not accurately represent 9.5% of the town's population.
3. Four friends are sharing a pizza. One friend eats half of the pizza. The other three friends equally divide the rest among themselves. What portion of the pizza did each of the other three friends receive?
- A. 1/5
- B. 1/3
- C. 1/4
- D. 1/6
Correct answer: D
Rationale: After one friend eats half of the pizza, there is half left. This remaining half is divided equally among three friends. To find the portion each of the other three friends receives, we divide 1/2 by 3, which equals 1/6. Therefore, each of the other three friends receives 1/6 of the pizza. Choice A, 1/5, is incorrect because the correct portion is 1/6. Choice B, 1/3, is incorrect as each of the three friends receives 1/6. Choice C, 1/4, is incorrect as well since the correct portion is 1/6.
4. Three roommates decided to combine their money to buy a birthday gift for the fourth roommate. The first roommate contributed $12.03, the second roommate gave $11.96, and the third roommate donated $12.06. Estimate the total amount of money the roommates used to purchase the gift
- A. $34
- B. $35
- C. $36
- D. $37
Correct answer: C
Rationale: To find the total amount contributed, you can add the individual contributions: $12.03 + $11.96 + $12.06 = $36. Therefore, the roommates used a total of $36 to purchase the gift. Choice A ($34), B ($35), and D ($37) are incorrect as they do not reflect the accurate total amount contributed by the roommates.
5. A patient was taking 310 mg of an antidepressant daily. The doctor reduced the dosage by 1/5, and then reduced it again by 20 mg. What is the patient’s final dosage?
- A. 20 mg
- B. 42 mg
- C. 228 mg
- D. 248 mg
Correct answer: C
Rationale: To calculate the final dosage, first find 1/5 of 310 mg, which is 62 mg, and subtract it from the original dosage. This gives 310 mg - 62 mg = 248 mg. Then, subtract an additional 20 mg from the result to get the final dosage: 248 mg - 20 mg = 228 mg. Therefore, the patient's final dosage is 228 mg. Choice A (20 mg) is incorrect because it only considers the second reduction of 20 mg and misses the initial reduction by 1/5. Choice B (42 mg) is incorrect as it miscalculates the reduction amounts. Choice D (248 mg) is incorrect as it does not account for the second reduction of 20 mg.
