TEAS Test Math Questions
1. What is the difference between two equal numbers?
- A. Negative
- B. Positive
- C. Zero
- D. Not enough information
Correct answer: C
Rationale: The difference between two numbers is found by subtracting one from the other. When two numbers are equal, subtracting them results in 0, because any number minus itself is always 0. Therefore, the difference between two equal numbers is always zero, making option C the correct answer. Option A ('Negative') and option B ('Positive') are incorrect as they do not represent the result of subtracting two equal numbers, which always yields zero. Option D ('Not enough information') is also incorrect as the difference between two equal numbers is definitively known to be zero.
2. In the town of Ellsford, there are approximately 1,450 residents who attend church weekly. If around 400 of them attend Catholic Churches, what percentage of churchgoers in Ellsford attends Catholic Churches?
- A. 23%
- B. 28%
- C. 36%
- D. 42%
Correct answer: B
Rationale: To find the percentage of churchgoers who attend Catholic Churches, divide the number of Catholic churchgoers by the total number of churchgoers and then multiply by 100. (400 ÷ 1,450) × 100 ≈ 27.59%, which rounds to 28%.
3. On a floor plan drawn at a scale of 1:100, the area of a rectangular room is 50 cm². What is the actual area of the room?
- A. 500 m²
- B. 50 m²
- C. 5000 cm²
- D. 500 cm²
Correct answer: D
Rationale: The scale of 1:100 means that 1 cm² on the floor plan represents 100 cm² in real life. To find the actual area of the room, you need to multiply the area on the floor plan by the square of the scale factor. Since the scale is 1:100, the scale factor is 100. Therefore, 50 cm² on the floor plan represents 50 * 100 = 5000 cm² in real life. Choice A (500 m²) is incorrect as it converts the area from cm² to m² without considering the scale factor. Choice B (50 m²) is incorrect as it does not account for the scale factor. Choice C (5000 cm²) is incorrect as it gives the area on the floor plan, not the actual area.
4. What is the median of the data set below: 5, -3, 10, -2, 0?
- A. 10
- B. 0
- C. 5
- D. 2
Correct answer: B
Rationale: To find the median, we first need to arrange the data set in ascending order: -3, -2, 0, 5, 10. The median is the middle value in the ordered set. As there are 5 numbers, the middle value is the third number, which is 0. Therefore, the correct answer is 0. Choice A (10) and Choice D (2) are not correct because they are not the middle values once the data set is ordered. Choice C (5) is also incorrect as it is not the middle value in the ordered data set.
5. University X requires some of its nursing students to take an exam before being admitted into the nursing program. In this year's class, the nursing students were required to take the exam, and all of those who took the exam passed. If this year's class has 200 students, how many students passed the exam?
- A. 120
- B. 100
- C. 60
- D. 50
Correct answer: B
Rationale: Since all nursing students who took the exam passed, it means 100% of the students who took the exam passed. As the total number of students in this year's class is 200, the number of students who passed the exam would be 100% of 200, equaling 200 * 100% = 200. Therefore, 200 students passed the exam.
