TEAS Exam Math Practice Questions
Question 1 of 5
A dry cleaner charges $3 per shirt, $6 per pair of pants, and an extra $5 per item for mending. Annie drops off 5 shirts and 4 pairs of pants, 2 of which need mending. Assuming the cleaner charges an 8% sales tax, what will be the amount of Annie's total bill?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: To calculate Annie's total bill: 1. Cost of shirts: 5 shirts x $3 = $15 2. Cost of pants: 4 pants x $6 = $24 3. Cost of mending: 2 items x $5 = $10 4. Subtotal = $15 + $24 + $10 = $49 5. Add 8% sales tax: $49 x 0.08 = $3.92 6. Total bill = $49 + $3.92 = $52.92 Therefore, the correct answer is C ($52.92). The other choices are incorrect because they do not accurately factor in the cost of mending and sales tax. Option A, B, and D do not consider the additional charges for mending and tax, leading to incorrect totals.
Question 2 of 5
A sandwich shop earns $4 for every sandwich (s) it sells, $2 for every drink (d), and $1 for every cookie (c). If this is all the shop sells, which of the following equations represents what the shop's revenue (r) is over three days?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To calculate the shop's revenue over three days, we need to consider the total sales of sandwiches, drinks, and cookies over the three days. The revenue formula should include the earnings from each item multiplied by the quantity sold. Therefore, the correct equation is r = 4s + 2d + 1c. This is because for each sandwich sold, the shop earns $4, for each drink $2, and for each cookie $1. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they incorrectly multiply the earnings by multiples of the quantities sold, which would result in an inflated revenue amount.
Question 3 of 5
Simplify the expression. Which of the following is the value of x? (5(4x - 5) = (3/2)(2x - 6))
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: To solve the equation 5(4x - 5) = (3/2)(2x - 6), first distribute on both sides to get 20x - 25 = 3x - 9. Then, move x terms to one side and constants to the other side to get 17x = 16. Finally, divide by 17 to find x = 16/17, which is the correct answer (C). The other choices are incorrect because they do not yield the correct value of x when substituted back into the original equation.
Question 4 of 5
Simplify the expression. What is the value of x? (5/4)x = 20
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: To solve the equation (5/4)x = 20, we first multiply both sides by 4/5 to isolate x. So, x = 20 * 4/5 = 16. Therefore, the correct answer is D. Option A, 8, is incorrect because x is not equal to 8. Option B, 24, and option C, 32, are also incorrect as they do not satisfy the given equation.
Question 5 of 5
If the price of a shirt was originally $30 and it is now being sold at a 20% discount, what is the sale price of the shirt?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To find the sale price after a 20% discount, we first calculate the discount amount: 20% of $30 is $6. Subtracting this discount from the original price gives us the sale price: $30 - $6 = $24, which is choice A. Other choices are incorrect as they do not reflect the correct calculation of the discount. B, C, and D are all higher than the correct answer, indicating incorrect calculations.
