TEAS Math Questions

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To find the number of hours spent sleeping, we need to calculate 1/4 of a day. Since a day has 24 hours, 1/4 of 24 is 24/4 = 6 hours. Therefore, the correct answer is A: 6 hours. Choice B (8 hours) is incorrect as it is not 1/4 of a day. Choices C (4 hours) and D (5 hours) are also incorrect as they do not represent 1/4 of a day.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 3 hours. Since the car travels 60 miles in 1 hour, its speed is 60 miles per hour. To travel 180 miles at the same speed, it will take 180 miles / 60 miles per hour = 3 hours. Choice B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately calculate the time required based on the given speed of the car. Choice B is too high, choice C is too low, and choice D is also too high.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To determine the number of male patients NOT overweight as children, calculate the total number of male patients: 30% of 100 patients = 30 male patients. Then, find the number of overweight male patients: 10% of 30 male patients = 3 overweight males. Subtract the overweight males from the total male patients to get the number of male patients NOT overweight: 30 - 3 = 27. Therefore, the correct answer is C (27). Choice A (3) is incorrect because it represents the number of overweight male patients, not the number of male patients NOT overweight. Choice B (10) is incorrect as it does not consider the calculation of overweight male patients and total male patients. Choice D (30) is incorrect as it represents the total number of male patients, not the number of male patients NOT overweight.

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: Veronica's total cost is the sum of the base price, surround sound system, and maintenance package: $40,210 + $3,015 + $5,218 = $48,443. This is the correct answer (B) as it calculates the total price accurately. Option A is incorrect as it only includes the base price. Option C is incorrect as it does not include the additional costs. Option D is incorrect as it only includes the base price without the additional expenses.
