TEAS Math Practice Test

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To round 8.067 to the nearest tenth, we look at the hundredth place, which is 6. Since 6 is equal to or greater than 5, we round the digit in the tenths place up by 1. Therefore, 8.067 rounded to the nearest tenth is 8.1. Choice A is correct because it correctly follows the rounding rule. Choice B is incorrect as it is a duplicate of Choice A. Choice C is incorrect as it rounds down to the nearest whole number, not the nearest tenth. Choice D is incorrect as it rounds up to the hundredth place, not the nearest tenth.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To find the sum of 3/4 and 5/8, we need a common denominator, which is 8. 3/4 is equivalent to 6/8, so the sum becomes 6/8 + 5/8 = 11/8. 11/8 can be simplified to 1 3/8, which is answer choice A. Therefore, the correct answer is D, 1 5/8. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not represent the correct sum of the fractions.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To find what number is 6 equal to 30% of, we set up the equation: 0.30x = 6. Solving for x, we get x = 6 / 0.30 = 20. Therefore, 6 is equal to 30% of 20. Choice A (18) is incorrect because 30% of 18 is 5.4, not 6. Choices B, C, and D are also incorrect as their respective calculations do not result in 6.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To divide 52 by 27, we get 1 with a remainder of 25. Then, when we divide 51 by 27, we get 1 with a remainder of 24. Therefore, the correct answer is A: 52/27, as it represents the result of the division without simplification. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not accurately represent the division results obtained.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To convert 3 5/7 to an improper fraction, multiply the whole number (3) by the denominator (7) and add the numerator (5) to get 26. The denominator remains the same, resulting in 26/7. This is the correct answer because it represents the mixed number 3 5/7 in fraction form. Choice B (21/7) simplifies to 3, which is the whole number part of the mixed number. Choice C (22/7) is equivalent to the approximation of π and not the correct conversion of 3 5/7. Choice D (26/5) is incorrect as it does not represent the mixed number 3 5/7 accurately.
