Math Practice TEAS Test

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Feet are larger; 1 foot is 0.3048 meters. To determine which is larger, we need to compare the conversion factor. 1 foot is equal to 0.3048 meters, indicating that a foot is smaller than a meter. Therefore, meters are larger than feet. Choice B is incorrect because 1 meter is equivalent to 3.28 feet, showing that a meter is larger. Choice C is incorrect as 1 foot is not 0.5 meters, and Choice D is incorrect as 1 meter is not 2 feet.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: A rational number can be expressed as a fraction or a decimal. A fraction is a ratio of two integers, and a decimal can represent a rational number, such as 0.5 (which is 1/2). Hence, a rational number can be a fraction, decimal, or a whole number. Options A and D are incorrect because a rational number is not limited to being a whole number or cannot be a decimal. Option B is partially correct but doesn't cover the full scope of possibilities for rational numbers. Option C is the correct answer as it encompasses all the possible representations of a rational number.

Correct Answer: A

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Mile is bigger; 1 mile is 1.609 km. This is because a mile is a longer unit of measurement compared to a kilometer. The conversion factor is 1 mile equals 1.609 kilometers. To convert miles to kilometers, you multiply the number of miles by 1.609. The other choices are incorrect because: B: Kilometer is bigger; 1 km is 1.609 miles - This is incorrect as a kilometer is shorter than a mile. C: Mile is bigger; 1 mile is 1.5 km - This is incorrect as 1 mile is actually equal to about 1.609 kilometers. D: Kilometer is bigger; 1 km is 2 miles - This is incorrect as a kilometer is shorter than 2 miles.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To find the total height when stacked, we add the heights of the two bookcases. 32.75 inches + 17.25 inches = 50 inches Therefore, the correct answer is B (50 inches). Explanation for incorrect choices: A: 49.5 inches is incorrect because the heights are added, not averaged. C: 48 inches is incorrect as it's less than the sum of the two heights. D: 51 inches is incorrect as it's greater than the sum of the two heights.
