TEAS Math Practice Test

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The mode is the number that appears most frequently in a set. In this case, the number 4 appears twice, which is more frequent than any other number in the set. Therefore, the mode of {4, 4, 5, 7, 8} is 4. Choice B (5), C (7), and D (8) are incorrect because each of these numbers appears only once in the set, making them less frequent than 4. The mode must be the number that appears most often in the set, which is 4.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To round 847.89632 to the nearest hundredth, we look at the digit in the thousandth place, which is 6. Since 6 is greater than or equal to 5, we round up the digit in the hundredth place (9) by 1, making it 10. Therefore, the number becomes 847.90 (answer A). Choice B (900) is incorrect as it rounds to the nearest whole number. Choice C (847.89) is incorrect as it rounds down. Choice D (847.896) is incorrect as it does not round to the nearest hundredth.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale after 5 retries.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To solve for y, first isolate y by adding 7 to both sides of the equation: 5y - 7 + 7 = 13 + 7. This simplifies to 5y = 20. Then, divide by 5 on both sides to find y = 4. Thus, the correct answer is A: 4. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not satisfy the equation 5y - 7 = 13.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To express 0.0523 as a fraction, we need to consider the decimal places. Since 0.0523 has 4 decimal places, we place the digits after the decimal point over the place value of the last digit, which is 10000. Therefore, the fraction is 523/10000, making choice A the correct answer. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not reflect the correct placement of decimal digits relative to the decimal point and the corresponding place value.
