TEAS Practice Math Test

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: $144.65. To find the total cost of Susan's outfit, you need to add up the costs of the dress, shoes, and accessories. $69.99 (dress) + $39.99 (shoes) + $34.67 (accessories) = $144.65. This is the total cost of Susan's outfit. Explanation for incorrect choices: A: $69.99 - This is only the cost of the dress and does not include the shoes and accessories. B: $75.31 - This amount is not the total cost as it only includes the dress and shoes, excluding the accessories. C: $109.98 - This sum is the total of the dress and shoes but does not include the accessories. Therefore, the correct answer is D as it includes the combined cost of all items purchased.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 3600 cubic inches. To calculate the volume of the aquarium, you multiply the length, width, and height: 30 x 10 x 12 = 3600 cubic inches. This is the total capacity of the aquarium when filled completely. Choice B (52 cubic inches) is too small as it doesn't consider the full dimensions of the aquarium. Choice C (312 cubic inches) and Choice D (1144 cubic inches) are incorrect because they do not accurately calculate the volume based on the given dimensions.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To calculate the total square inches of wrapping paper needed, we first find the surface area of the box. The surface area of a rectangular box is calculated by adding the areas of all its faces. For this box, the surface area is 2(14x8) + 2(14x6) + 2(8x6) = 224 + 168 + 96 = 488 square inches. Therefore, the correct answer is C (488). Choice A (56) is incorrect because it is too small and does not account for all sides of the box. Choice B (244) is also incorrect as it is not the total surface area of the box. Choice D (672) is incorrect as it is too large and does not accurately represent the wrapping paper needed.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To determine the order from least to greatest, convert all fractions to decimal equivalents. -2 3/4 = -2.75 -2 7/8 = -2.875 -1/5 = -0.2 1/8 = 0.125 2/5 = 0.4 Now arrange them in ascending order: -2.875, -2.75, -0.2, 0.125, 0.4 Therefore, the correct order from least to greatest is -2 7/8, -2 3/4, -1/5, 1/8, 2/5 (Option C). Other choices are incorrect as they do not follow the correct order of the numbers when arranged from least to greatest.
