TEAS Practice Test Math

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To convert kilograms to grams, we multiply by 1000 since 1 kg = 1000 grams. Therefore, 3.193 kg * 1000 = 3193 grams. Choice B, 3,193 grams, is the correct equivalent weight. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect as they do not correctly convert kilograms to grams. Choice A is way too large, choice C is too small, and choice D is significantly smaller than the original weight.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To determine the correct order of the groups, we need to compare the fractions given for each group. Group X has 1/4 of the doctors, Group Y has 1/3, and Group Z has 1/6. Comparing the fractions, we see that 1/3 is larger than 1/4 but smaller than 1/6. Therefore, Group Y has the most doctors, followed by Group X, and then Group Z. Hence, the correct order is D: Group Y, Group X, Group Z. This is because Group Y has the largest fraction of doctors, followed by Group X, and then Group Z. Choices A, B, and C can be eliminated because they do not follow the correct order based on the fractions provided.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A because an exponent is a number that indicates how many times a base number is multiplied by itself. For example, in 2^3, 3 is the exponent telling us to multiply 2 by itself 3 times. Choice B is incorrect because an exponent is not the number being multiplied, but the number indicating how many times to multiply. Choice C is incorrect as an exponent does not involve division. Choice D is incorrect as it refers specifically to squaring a number, whereas exponents can apply to any power beyond just squaring.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To find the number of students in the respiratory care program, we need to calculate the percentage of students in that program based on the pie chart. The respiratory care program occupies 19% of the pie chart. 19% of 800 students is 0.19 * 800 = 152. Therefore, the correct answer is B: 152. Choice A (336) is incorrect as it represents the percentage of students in a different program, not respiratory care. Choice C (144) and Choice D (168) are also incorrect as they do not correspond to the percentage allocated for the respiratory care program in the pie chart.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To convert kilograms to grams, we multiply by 1000 since 1 kg = 1000 grams. Therefore, 3.193 kg * 1000 = 3193 grams. Choice B, 3,193 grams, is the correct equivalent weight. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect as they do not correctly convert kilograms to grams. Choice A is way too large, choice C is too small, and choice D is significantly smaller than the original weight.
