TEAS Test Math Questions

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To find the product of 2/3 and 3/4, multiply the numerators (2 * 3 = 6) to get the new numerator and multiply the denominators (3 * 4 = 12) to get the new denominator. Therefore, the product is 6/12 which simplifies to 1/2. Choice A (1) is correct because 1 is the simplified form of the product. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not reflect the correct multiplication of fractions.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The mode is the value that appears most frequently in a data set. In this case, the number 4 appears three times, which is more frequent than any other number in the set. Therefore, the mode of the data set is 4 (Choice C). The other choices (A: 2, B: 3, D: 5) are incorrect because they do not appear as frequently as 4 in the given data set.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale after 5 retries.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To find the area that needs weeding, we first calculate the area of the entire circle using the formula A = πr^2. Substituting the radius (11.5 feet) into the formula gives A = 3.14 * 11.5^2 ≈ 415.49 sq ft. Since only half needs weeding, we divide this by 2 to get 207.74 sq ft, which rounds to 207.64 sq ft (Option B). Other choices are incorrect because they either don't consider halving the area or use incorrect calculations.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C because in multiplication and division, the product of the quotient and the divisor is indeed the dividend. To understand this, consider a division problem like 12 ÷ 3 = 4. Here, 4 (quotient) multiplied by 3 (divisor) equals 12 (dividend). Therefore, the product of the quotient and the divisor equals the dividend. Choice A is incorrect as it doesn't align with the relationship between quotient, dividend, and divisor in division. Choice B is incorrect as it reverses the relationship between dividend and divisor in multiplication. Choice D is incorrect as there is a correct statement among the choices.
