TEAS Test Practice Math Questions
Question 1 of 5
If 35% of a paycheck is deducted for taxes and 4% for insurance, what is the total percent taken out of the paycheck?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: To find the total percent deducted, you add the percentages taken for taxes and insurance. 35% + 4% = 39%. Therefore, the correct answer is C (39%). Choice A (20%) is too low, as it only considers the tax deduction. Choice B (31%) and Choice D (42%) are incorrect because they don't account for both deductions.
Question 2 of 5
In the winter of 2006, 6 inches of snow fell in Chicago, IL. The following winter, 3 inches of snowfall fell in Chicago. What was the percent decrease in snowfall in Chicago between those two winters?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: To calculate the percent decrease in snowfall: 1. Find the difference in snowfall between the two winters: 6 - 3 = 3 inches. 2. Divide the difference by the initial amount: 3 / 6 = 0.5. 3. Multiply the result by 100 to get the percentage decrease: 0.5 * 100 = 50%. Therefore, the correct answer is C (41.00%) as it is the closest rounded percentage to the calculated 50% decrease. Other choices are incorrect as they do not align with the calculated decrease percentage.
Question 3 of 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?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B (100 students passed the exam). Since all students who took the exam passed, if the class has 200 students, then all 200 students must have taken the exam, and all of them passed. Therefore, the total number of students who passed the exam is equal to the total number of students who took the exam, which is 200. So, the correct answer is 200 students passed the exam. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not reflect the fact that all students who took the exam passed.
Question 4 of 5
The cost, in dollars, of shipping x computers to California for sale is 3000 + 100x. The amount received when selling these computers is 400x dollars. What is the least number of computers that must be shipped and sold so that the amount received is at least equal to the shipping cost?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: To find the least number of computers to be shipped and sold for the amount received to be equal to shipping cost, we set the selling amount equal to the shipping cost: 400x = 3000 + 100x Solving for x, we get x = 15. Therefore, the correct answer is B. Choice A (10) is too low as it results in less revenue than the shipping cost. Choices C (20) and D (25) are higher than the minimum required number of 15 computers, resulting in more revenue than needed.
Question 5 of 5
A commuter survey counts the people riding in cars on a highway in the morning. Each car contains only one man, only one woman, or both one man and one woman. Out of 25 cars, 13 contain a woman and 20 contain a man. How many contain both a man and a woman?
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.
