TEAS Math Questions

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To find the number of students who will complete the program: 1. 3/4 of students major in nursing, so 3/4 * 100 = 75 students major in nursing. 2. 1/3 of nursing students complete the program, so 1/3 * 75 = 25 students will complete the program. Therefore, if 100 students are in the incoming class, 25 students will complete the program. Choice C (15) is incorrect because it does not align with the calculations. Choices A (75), B (20), and D (5) are also incorrect as they do not accurately reflect the number of students who will complete the program based on the given information.

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.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To calculate how many liters are left after using 25%, we first find 25% of 10 liters: 10 * 0.25 = 2.5 liters used. Subtracting this from the initial amount gives us the remaining water: 10 - 2.5 = 7.5 liters left. Therefore, choice A (7.5 liters) is correct. Choice B (8 liters) is incorrect because it doesn't account for the water that was used. Choice C (6.5 liters) and choice D (8.5 liters) are also incorrect as they do not reflect the correct calculation based on the given information.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C (29). To find the range, we subtract the lowest number of flights from the highest number. Given that the choices are 20, 25, 29, and 32, the range would be 32 (highest) - 20 (lowest) = 12. Therefore, the number of flights per month must fall within this range, which is accurately represented by choice C (29). Choices A, B, and D are outside of this range and do not align with the calculation for finding the range, making them incorrect.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To find the percentage of trips that are the longest route, divide the number of longest route trips (3) by the total number of trips (9) and multiply by 100. So, (3/9) * 100 = 33.33% ≈ 33% which corresponds to choice B. Option A (0.25) is incorrect as it represents 25%, not 33%. Option C (0.5) represents 50%, which is incorrect as well. Option D (0.75) represents 75%, which is also incorrect.
