TEAS Test Math Questions

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To determine the smallest decimal, compare the digits from left to right. In choice C (2.002), the first non-zero digit is in the thousandths place, making it smaller than choices A, B, and D. Choice A (2.22) has the first non-zero digit in the tenths place, making it larger than choice C. Choice B (2.02) has a smaller tenths place digit than choice A but a larger hundredths place digit, still making it larger than choice C. Choice D (2.2) has the first non-zero digit in the tenths place, which is larger than choice C. Therefore, the correct answer is C (2.002) as it has the smallest value among the given options.

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: B

Rationale: To find the sum of 4 + 5 + 12 + 9, we add each number sequentially: 4 + 5 = 9 9 + 12 = 21 21 + 9 = 30 Therefore, the correct answer is B: 30. Option A (20), C (40), and D (50) are incorrect as they do not accurately reflect the sum of the given numbers.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Correct Answer: A (2) Rationale: 1. When dividing 8 by 4, it means splitting 8 into 4 equal parts. 2. Each part would be 2, as 8 divided by 4 equals 2. 3. Therefore, the result of dividing 8 by 4 is 2. Summary: - Option B (4): Incorrect, as 8 divided by 4 is not 4. - Option C (6): Incorrect, as dividing 8 by 4 does not result in 6. - Option D (8): Incorrect, as the division of 8 by 4 does not yield 8.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To find the area of a circle, we use the formula A = πr^2, where r is the radius. Since the diameter is 16 cm, the radius is half of that, which is 8 cm. Plugging this into the formula, A = 3.14 * 8^2 = 3.14 * 64 = 200.96 cm^2. Therefore, the correct answer is D. Choice A: 25.12 - This is incorrect as it is much smaller than the correct answer. Choice B: 50.24 - This is incorrect as it is also smaller than the correct answer. Choice C: 100.48 - This is incorrect as it is still smaller than the correct answer.
