TEAS Math Practice Test
1. At the beginning of the day, Xavier has 20 apples. At lunch, he meets his sister Emma and gives her half of his apples. After lunch, he stops by his neighbor Jim's house and gives him 6 of his apples. He then uses 3/4 of his remaining apples to make an apple pie for dessert at dinner. At the end of the day, how many apples does Xavier have left?
- A. 4
- B. 6
- C. 2
- D. 1
Correct answer: D
Rationale: Xavier gives away half of his 20 apples (10), then gives 6 more apples, leaving him with 4 apples. He uses 3/4 of the remaining 4 apples (3) for the pie, leaving him with 1 apple at the end of the day. Therefore, the correct answer is 1. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not accurately reflect the calculations of apples given away and used for the pie, resulting in the remaining amount of 1 apple.
2. Alan currently weighs 200 pounds, but he wants to lose weight to get down to 175 pounds. What is the difference in kilograms? (1 pound is approximately equal to 0.45 kilograms.)
- A. 9 kg
- B. 11.25 kg
- C. 78.75 kg
- D. 90 kg
Correct answer: B
Rationale: The difference between Alan's current weight of 200 pounds and his goal weight of 175 pounds is 25 pounds (200 pounds - 175 pounds). To convert pounds to kilograms, you multiply the number of pounds by 0.45 (not divide by 2.2). Thus, 25 pounds is approximately 11.25 kilograms (25 pounds x 0.45). Therefore, the difference in kilograms is 11.25 kg. Choice A is incorrect because it miscalculates the conversion. Choices C and D are significantly higher values and do not reflect the correct conversion from pounds to kilograms.
3. During week 1, Nurse Cameron works 5 shifts. During week 2, she worked twice as many shifts as she did in week 1. In week 3, she added 4 shifts to the number of shifts worked in week 2. Which equation describes the number of shifts Nurse Cameron worked in week 3?
- A. Shifts = (2)(5) + 4
- B. Shifts = (4)(5) + 2
- C. Shifts = 5 + 2 + 4
- D. Shifts = (5)(2)(4)
Correct answer: A
Rationale: During week 1, Nurse Cameron worked 5 shifts. In week 2, she worked twice as many shifts as in week 1, which is 10 shifts. In week 3, she added 4 shifts to the number of shifts worked in week 2. Therefore, the total shifts in week 3 can be calculated as (2)(5) + 4 = 10 + 4 = 14 shifts. Choice A correctly represents this calculation. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately reflect the given scenario and the steps needed to find the total shifts in week 3.
4. Shawna buys 5.0 gallons of paint. If she uses 2.5 gallons of it on the first day, how much does she have left?
- A. 2.0 gallons
- B. 2.5 gallons
- C. 3.0 gallons
- D. 1.5 gallons
Correct answer: B
Rationale: To find the remaining paint, subtract the amount used from the total gallons bought. 5.0 - 2.5 = 2.5 gallons. Therefore, Shawna has 2.5 gallons of paint left after using 2.5 gallons on the first day. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately represent the amount of paint left after using 2.5 gallons.
5. What is the range in the number of flights made per month by the flight attendant?
- A. 20
- B. 25
- C. 29
- D. 32
Correct answer: C
Rationale: The range is calculated by finding the difference between the highest and lowest values. In this case, the highest number of flights made per month is 32, and the lowest is 3. Therefore, the range is 32 - 3 = 29. Choice C, '29', is the correct answer. Choice A, '20', Choice B, '25', and Choice D, '32', are incorrect as they are individual data points and do not represent the range, which is a measure of spread between the highest and lowest values.
