TEAS Test Practice Math

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To find the cars with both a man and a woman, we can use the formula: Total = Man + Woman - Both + Neither. Given Man = 20, Woman = 13, Total = 25, and Neither = 0 (since each car has at least one person), we can plug in the values: 25 = 20 + 13 - Both + 0. Solving for Both, we get Both = 8. Therefore, the correct answer is C (8 cars with both a man and a woman). Summary: A: Incorrect. There are more cars with a man. B: Incorrect. This number is too high considering the given information. D: Incorrect. This is the total number of cars, not the number with both a man and a woman.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To determine how much money he puts into his house savings account each month, we subtract the rent from his total monthly budget. Since he pays $270 for rent, subtracting this from his total monthly budget gives $270. Therefore, he puts $90 into his house savings account each month. Option A is correct. Option B is incorrect as it represents the total rent amount. Options C and D are significantly higher than the rent amount, making them incorrect.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To find the percentage of Dr. Lee's patients hospitalized after taking the antibiotic, we multiply the percentage of patients who developed an infection (30%) by the percentage of those hospitalized (5% of 30%): 30% * 5% = 1.5%. Therefore, 1.5% of all patients were hospitalized. The correct answer is C (15%). Summary: A (1.50%): This is incorrect because it miscalculates the percentage of patients hospitalized. B (5%): This is incorrect as it represents the percentage of patients that developed an infection and not those hospitalized. D (30%): This is incorrect as it represents the total percentage of patients developing an infection, not those hospitalized.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To calculate 80% of 30 questions, multiply 30 by 0.80, which equals 24. Joshua needs to answer at least 24 questions correctly to meet the 80% threshold for the scholarship. Therefore, the correct answer is B. Choice A (23) is incorrect because it falls short of 80% of 30 questions. Choices C (26) and D (27) exceed the minimum requirement, making them unnecessary.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To find the dimensions of the dilated triangle, we multiply each side length by the scale factor x. Given the original triangle has sides 9 cm, 4 cm, and 7 cm, the scale factor x is the ratio of the corresponding sides of the original and dilated triangles. Calculating the ratios for each side: 9/x = 6.75, 4/x = 3, 7/x = 5.25. Solving for x, we get x = 1.33. Multiplying each side by the scale factor gives the dimensions of the dilated triangle as 6.75 cm, 3 cm, and 5.25 cm, which matches option C. Option A, B, and D have incorrect dimensions as they do not match the correct calculations.
