TEAS Test Math Questions

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To find the total distance Jayden rides, add the two distances: 5/8 + 3/4 = 10/16 + 12/16 = 22/16 = 1 6/16 = 1 3/8 miles. Therefore, choice A (1 3/8 miles) is the correct answer. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately calculate the total distance Jayden rides based on the given distances.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To find the area of a circle, we use the formula A = πr^2, where r is the radius. Since the diameter is 16 cm, the radius is half of that, which is 8 cm. Plugging this into the formula, A = 3.14 * 8^2 = 3.14 * 64 = 200.96 cm^2. Therefore, the correct answer is D. Choice A: 25.12 - This is incorrect as it is much smaller than the correct answer. Choice B: 50.24 - This is incorrect as it is also smaller than the correct answer. Choice C: 100.48 - This is incorrect as it is still smaller than the correct answer.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To determine the smallest decimal, compare the digits from left to right. In choice C (2.002), the first non-zero digit is in the thousandths place, making it smaller than choices A, B, and D. Choice A (2.22) has the first non-zero digit in the tenths place, making it larger than choice C. Choice B (2.02) has a smaller tenths place digit than choice A but a larger hundredths place digit, still making it larger than choice C. Choice D (2.2) has the first non-zero digit in the tenths place, which is larger than choice C. Therefore, the correct answer is C (2.002) as it has the smallest value among the given options.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To find the result of multiplying fractions, you simply multiply the numerators together and the denominators together. For 3/5 * 5/7: (3*5) / (5*7) = 15 / 35, which simplifies to 3/7. Thus, the correct answer is A: 3/7. Other choices are incorrect because they do not result from the correct multiplication process. B: 1 is the result of multiplying any fraction by its reciprocal, while C: 2 and D: 4 are not valid outcomes of this specific multiplication.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The perimeter of a square is calculated by adding up all four sides. Since all sides of a square are equal, the perimeter is 4 times the length of one side. In this case, the side length is 6 cm, so the perimeter would be 4*6 = 24 cm. Therefore, choice A (24 cm) is correct. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not correctly calculate the perimeter of a square with a side length of 6 cm. Choice B (12 cm) is half the correct answer, choice C (18 cm) is three-quarters of the correct answer, and choice D (36 cm) is double the correct answer.
