TEAS Math Questions

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To find the number of male patients who were not overweight as children, we first calculate the total number of male patients. Since 70% of the patients were women, 30% were men. This means there were 30 men in the study. Out of these men, 10% were overweight as children, which is 10% of 30, equaling 3 men. Therefore, the remaining men who were not overweight would be 30 - 3 = 27. Therefore, choice C (27) is the correct answer. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect as they do not accurately represent the calculation based on the given information.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A. To determine which group has the largest number of patients, we need to find the group with the largest fraction. Comparing 1/2, 1/3, and 1/6, 1/2 is the largest fraction. Therefore, the group represented by 1/2 has the largest number of patients. Summary of other choices: B: Beta - Represents 1/3, which is smaller than 1/2. C: Gamma - Represents 1/6, which is smaller than both 1/2 and 1/3. D: Delta - No fraction is provided, so we cannot compare it to the other groups.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Step 1: Calculate the number of boys in the class. 60% of 30 students = 0.6 * 30 = 18 boys. Step 2: Calculate the number of girls in the class. Since there are 30 students in total, and 18 are boys, there must be 30 - 18 = 12 girls. Therefore, the correct answer is B: 12 girls. Other choices are incorrect because they do not align with the given percentages and total number of students.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To calculate the total time, first find the time for the first segment: 305 miles / 65 mph = 4.69 hours. Then, add the 15-minute stop: 15 minutes / 60 = 0.25 hours. Next, find the time for the second segment: 162 miles / 80 mph = 2.025 hours. Add up all the times: 4.69 + 0.25 + 2.025 = 6.965 hours. Since this is closest to 6.69 hours (choice C), that is the correct answer. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately represent the total time elapsed since the trip began.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct order is Gamma, Alpha, Beta. Step 1: Find the least common multiple (LCM) of the fractions: LCM of 2, 3, and 6 is 6. Step 2: Calculate the number of patients in each group for a total of 6 patients. Group Alpha: 6 * (1/2) = 3 patients. Group Beta: 6 * (1/3) = 2 patients. Group Gamma: 6 * (1/6) = 1 patient. Therefore, the correct order is Gamma (1 patient), Alpha (3 patients), Beta (2 patients). Choice C is correct as it reflects this order. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect as they do not follow the correct distribution of patients based on the fractions given.
