TEAS 7 Math Practice Test

1. A lab technician took 500 milliliters of blood from a patient. The technician used 1/6 of the blood for further tests. How many milliliters of blood were used for further tests? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To find 1/6 of 500, multiply 500 by 1/6: (500)(1/6) = 500/6 = 83.33. Converting the fraction to a decimal gives 83.33. Rounding this to the nearest hundredth results in 83.33. Therefore, 83.33 milliliters of blood were used for further tests. Choice A is incorrect as it does not consider the decimal value of the fraction. Choice B is incorrect as it rounds to the tenths place, not the nearest hundredth. Choice D is incorrect as it rounds up unnecessarily, as the correct answer should be rounded to 83.33.

2. How many milliliters are there in 3.2 liters?

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To convert liters to milliliters, you need to know that 1 liter is equal to 1000 milliliters. Therefore, 3.2 liters is equivalent to 3.2 x 1000 = 3200 milliliters. Choice A (0.32) is incorrect as it incorrectly moves the decimal point. Choice B (32) is incorrect as it doesn't consider the conversion factor between liters and milliliters. Choice D (320) is incorrect as it is a partial conversion error, missing a zero at the end.

3. Kyle has $950 in savings and wishes to donate one-fifth of it to 8 local charities. He estimates that he will donate around $30 to each charity. Which of the following correctly describes the reasonableness of his estimate?

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Kyle initially had $950 in savings, and one-fifth of that amount would be $190. Since he wishes to donate around $30 to each charity, the total amount he would donate to 8 local charities would be $30 x 8 = $240. This amount is more than one-fifth of $1,000, making the estimate not reasonable. Choice A is incorrect because $190 is the correct one-fifth of $950, not $900. Choice B is incorrect as it compares $190 to a different amount ($1,000) rather than the actual total. Choice D is incorrect as it states that $240 is one-fifth of $1,000, which is inaccurate.

4. Erma has her eye on two sweaters at her favorite clothing store, but she has been waiting for the store to offer a sale. This week, the store advertises 25% off a second item of equal or lesser value. One sweater is $50, and the other is $44. What will Erma spend?

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Erma receives a 25% discount on the $44 sweater, which amounts to a $11 discount. Therefore, she pays $44 - $11 = $33 for this sweater. Adding this discounted price to the $50 sweater, Erma will spend a total of $50 + $33 = $83. Choice A, $79, is incorrect because it does not include the correct calculation for the discounted sweater. Choice B, $81, is incorrect as it does not consider the discounts on both sweaters. Choice D, $85, is incorrect since it overestimates the total amount Erma will spend.

5. Order the groups from largest to smallest, according to the number of doctors in each group.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct order from largest to smallest number of doctors in each group is Group Z (20 doctors), Group Y (15 doctors), and Group X (10 doctors). Therefore, the correct order is Group Z, Group Y, and Group X, which matches option B. Option B is correct because it correctly reflects the descending order of the number of doctors in each group. Options A, C, and D are incorrect as they do not follow the correct order of the number of doctors in each group.
