ATI TEAS Math Practice Test

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To convert 56 kilograms to pounds, we use the conversion factor that 1 kilogram is approximately 2.2 pounds. So, 56 kg x 2.2 = 123.2 pounds. Since we are asked for the approximate weight in pounds, we round it to the nearest whole number, which is 123 pounds. Summary: - A (123 pounds) is correct because it is the accurate conversion of 56 kilograms to pounds. - B (110 pounds), C (156 pounds), and D (137 pounds) are incorrect as they do not correctly convert 56 kilograms to pounds using the conversion factor.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To arrange the numbers from least to greatest, we convert them to decimals or find a common denominator. Converting to decimals, we get: 7/3 = 2.33, 9/2 = 4.5, 10/9 = 1.11, 7/8 = 0.875. Therefore, the correct order is 7/8 < 10/9 < 7/3 < 9/2. Choice D is correct as it follows this order. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not reflect the correct ascending sequence.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To find the number of students who will complete the nursing program, we first calculate the number of students majoring in nursing: 100 students * 3/4 = 75 nursing majors. Then, we determine how many of these nursing majors will complete the program: 75 nursing majors * 1/5 = 15 students. Therefore, the correct answer is C (15). Choice A (75) is incorrect because it represents the total number of nursing majors, not the number completing the program. Choice B (20) is incorrect as it does not consider the completion rate. Choice D (5) is incorrect as it is too low and does not account for the proportion of nursing majors who actually complete the program.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D (6.97 hours). To calculate the total time taken, first find the time for the first segment: 305 miles / 65 mph = 4.69 hours. Then add the 15-minute stop in hours: 15 minutes / 60 = 0.25 hours. Next, find the time for the second segment: 162 miles / 80 mph = 2.025 hours. Add up these times: 4.69 hours + 0.25 hours + 2.025 hours = 6.965 hours, which rounds to 6.97 hours. Choice A is incorrect as it does not account for the distance covered and the stop. Choices B and C are incorrect as they do not consider the time for the second segment.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To solve the equation 4(2x - 6) = 10x - 6, first distribute 4 to get 8x - 24 = 10x - 6. Next, rearrange the terms to isolate x. Subtract 8x from both sides to get -24 = 2x - 6. Add 6 to both sides to get -18 = 2x. Finally, divide by 2 to solve for x, giving x = -9. Choice A is incorrect because x is not equal to 5, choice B is incorrect because x is not equal to -7, and choice D is incorrect because x is not equal to 10.
