TEAS Test Practice Math Questions
Question 1 of 5
Joshua is taking a test with 30 questions. To qualify for an academic scholarship, he needs to answer at least 80% of the questions correctly. What is the minimum number of questions Joshua must answer correctly to qualify for the scholarship?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: To calculate 80% of 30 questions, multiply 30 by 0.80, which equals 24. Joshua needs to answer at least 24 questions correctly to meet the 80% threshold for the scholarship. Therefore, the correct answer is B. Choice A (23) is incorrect because it falls short of 80% of 30 questions. Choices C (26) and D (27) exceed the minimum requirement, making them unnecessary.
Question 2 of 5
What is the square root of 1296?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: To find the square root of 1296, we look for a number that, when multiplied by itself, equals 1296. The square root of 1296 is 36 because 36 * 36 = 1296. Choice A (24) is incorrect since 24 * 24 is not equal to 1296. Choice C (31) and Choice D (12) are also incorrect as neither of them results in the square of 1296 when multiplied by themselves. Therefore, the correct answer is B (36).
Question 3 of 5
A farmer plans to install fencing around a certain field. If each side of the hexagonal field is 320 feet long, and fencing costs $75 per foot, how much will the farmer need to spend on fencing material to enclose the perimeter of the field?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: To calculate the total cost of fencing, we need to find the perimeter of the hexagonal field. Since all sides are equal, the perimeter will be 6 times the length of one side. Perimeter = 6 x 320 feet = 1920 feet. Cost of fencing = Perimeter x Cost per foot = 1920 feet x $75 = $144,000. Therefore, the correct answer is C: $3,360. Explanation for other choices: A: $2,240 - Incorrect because it does not account for the entire perimeter. B: $2,800 - Incorrect, as it underestimates the total cost. D: $4,480 - Incorrect, as it overestimates the total cost.
Question 4 of 5
Solve the following equation: 3(2y+50)−4y=500
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: To solve the equation, we first distribute the 3 to both terms inside the parentheses: 6y + 150 - 4y = 500. Combining like terms, we get 2y + 150 = 500. Next, we isolate the variable by subtracting 150 from both sides, giving us 2y = 350. Finally, we divide by 2 to solve for y, resulting in y = 175. Choice B is correct because it correctly follows the order of operations and simplifies the equation accurately. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect as they do not yield the correct value of y when substituted back into the original equation.
Question 5 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.
